A 4 stroke top end seizure is a rare thing ...possible oil pump failure? 'Partial siezure' sounds like something redeemable. Was the bike running ok after it cooled? have you recently changed oil filter (oilways may be obstructed) If it's just witness markings you are seeing I would venture a new set of rings make sure lubrication system is as it should be (not familiar with the engine but pick up clear - strainer clear - oilways clear - new filter...
