Your bike ... your decision!
I know!
I’m a bit tiered of making Cafe racers with modern suspension and brakes as I have done this during years.
For this one I’m more keen making a classical road-racer style as I never made this before

You're very quick!!! Great progress
Normally I just have to be at my work from 08:15 to 13:00h, that’s why I have all afternoon for sports, family or my garage...
I haven’t done much today, but I did try on the Kawa wheel and rear brake with the oem swing and it’s a very easy fit.
But I prefer to try finding the re-forced unit from the Gsxr 1100 just for the look..

I will change all four pistons as this is the only correct way.
But with what pistons...
Wiseco

Wössner ( I have used this brand a lot in Porsche’s)
Etc...

What damage has it done to the barrels ?
It will need a light honing.
As I have no experience with this engine I don’t know what piston to search for, I’m not building a race engine but as I have to replace and doesn’t know what brand to use.
I have been restoring air cooled Porsche and Ducati’s for more than 25 years and this is new for me

Cool project, definitely going in the deep end restoration wise Good progress so far!
From those who have tried it, is soda blasting a complete engine (without later disassembling to clean) considered safe or risky?
(not sure if ElVikingo is intending to disassemble, just curious)
HI I just soda blast before dismantling the complete engine as this way its cleaner and also one way to advance as before painting and reassembling again.
Some parts to be powder coated other powder coated etc...
