I've sold all my bikes and will live happily if I never have to split another wheel or change another cruciform. That said, you misdiagnosed the cause of your engine failure. Lack of oil would cause the piston to overheat, swell and seize in the cylinder, causing the rear end to lock up- an event I have had happen too many times. A holed piston is due to timing issues that slowly pock the dome of the piston. If these problems are still existent on the bike, the new piston will hole also. You might want to take off the cylinder head and check whether there are small nicks in the piston. All the best, Aaron Someone told me that I should look at your site.
