Couldn't you borrow some of Julie's nail files/emery boards and spend some time filing those pistons to fit? On second  thoughts no, you're not moto guzzi factory trained!
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

Why do I think he doesn't use them on bikes though?

Can't do that, he has his usual filthy, dirty engineers hands on today. He only paints his nails when he's dressed up..... as Claire 😃😃😃😃

Bad news when the Honda is 30+ years older, runs better and quieter, and is ALWAYS going to be more reliable. About the only thing worse than a moto gutless is a hardly dangerous, and what overpriced, overrated rubbish they are. Why spend the extortionate sums they ask for one, you can go to a farm machinery dealer, buy a clapped out Massey Ferguson someone has part exchanged, cut it down the middle, front to back with a disc cutter, and you'll have two 2 wheeled vehicles that will go and handle better than any Harley rider could dream of! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
