I'm the anal guy, if you haven't found the pieces, they have to be someplace, and if your fortunate enough that it didn't crack your cases, you had better make sure the pieces are gone or you could crack them. you have it out and almost apart go the rest of the way, check it out and replace at least the seals, I'd go bearings as well since there was debris floating around.

I was actually waiting for an answer on  the crank texture,
Thought to myself why measure anything if there was something wrong with it.  since i know not to worry about the texture,  I'll measure tonight when i get home. But have found some of the   piston, small pieces in the expansion chamber,   and i had the side of the case off already, and everything is clean, bearings  look in good working order  the case is clean checked out the gears, and there is no sign of  major wear on my gears, my cases show no sign of cracks,  as well as there are no scratches in the engine itself, so i going to say piston skirt got blown out,

I don't use a silencer with a spark arrester, but if you're using one with a spark arrester the pieces could be clogged up in there also. Just a thought...

J.ellwanger:
I do have a spark arrester, I'll pull that apart to, need to anyways,  but I'll check there, as far measuring tonight, i didn't get home till late, so I'm just going to bed, try tomorrow, but work SUCKS after a  holiday... Go from 8-5 to 8-8:3 :oops:
 8-) the American dream,

J.ellwanger:
So, I finally got off my lazy ass, and split the cases all the way...
  Im gonna rebuild the whole bottom end as well, but questions on the crank, can it be machined?
 I inspected the bearings and on the transmission side, there is a roughness to them when you spin them, free, but rough, and my crank bearings Spin with no roughness,  but regardless,  ill be replacing all of them,
 And am thinking about replacing all of everything on the bike, swing arm bearing, and stem, yada yada yada,
 Pulling it apart after the Broncos Game!
