I have a stock 2008 rzr 800 that the previous owner dusted. Has 1300 miles. I am using a quart of oil every 50 miles so that’s getting old. Other than that the machine seems to run just fine. I have never done anything like this but after watching D-Rays youtube video seems fairly simple. My background is I remodel houses to being ‘handy’ is second nature to me.
So what I’m not sure about is should I exchange the cylinder and do pistons and rings? I’ve read where some people only change rings. I get that if the cylinder is marred then obviously it needs rehoned but I have seen pictures of ‘bad’ cylinders that looked fine to me so I don’t really know what I’m looking for.
Any suggestions to where I can buy everything together opposed to trying to figure out what I need? I’ve heard some say to go with wiseco pistons so don’t know if I should do that or just stay stock?
