I did call around to some local automotive machine shops- most of them
said it was not a good idea to have them sleeve the piston as it was not
a size they had access to or they just didn't want to do motorcycle
stuff- I did get two quotes, one for $200 per cylinder, one for $275
per. Makes the Gilardoni sets look like a no brainer, unless you can
find GUS stuff which is getting harder and harder.
