Shop says new piston rings required. Am I being conned?
#9
Just spoke to the shop and they said they had done a crankcase pressure test which resulted in oil being pushed up into cylinder 3 which would be causing intermittent miss fire and it definitely needs new piston rings. Cost likely to be 6 hrs labour at £60 per hour. £150 for new gaskets and £150 for Piston Rings. Plus £108 already spent. £768 +vat.


Bike probably worth about £1000 as not in brilliant condition.
