If you get a clymers manual you can do it yourself without too much difficulty, plus you'll save alot of money. If you do it yourself, take it apart and see what kind of condition the cylinders in, then order the piston. I suggest a wiseco, when i rebuilt mine i went from .020 wiseco to .040 suzuki..it didnt have the snappiness that it did before the rebuild.

Sandhopper, It is a very easy fix to do at home just get the manual piston and valve seals. I took the head to a small local shop to grind valves and assemble valves (less than $100.) and worth evey penny. I installed the wiesco piston with no problems and machine shop inspected the bore and did a light hone at no extra cost when they did the head.
