Duneme, this 720 kit works with stock rod, but you may want to have your mech go into the bottom end to look over everything.

Also, anyone else that does this kit I highly recommend that after the first few rides MAKE SURE TO CHECK the oil rez filter, for some reason it catches alot of debri after the re-build.

 

Sam will ship your cylinder back to you. But don't always count on it gettting to you when he tells you. I also learned today that he may not be boring these cylinders out correctly. I understand he has been setting up the tolerances a little to close, I will have this verified by the end of next week and let you know. Also if you do go with his stuff make sure he installs the L.A. Sleeve and not the Advanced sleave. The L.A. Sleeve is a little cheaper and he can set it up a little better in my opinion. You are less likely to develop a head leak with this sleave. And no you don't need a longer rod. This kit is stupid simple to install as long as you have the right person do it or you contact someone who knows all the clearance issues like myself.
