$550 is too much to invest considering they won't add that much in resale.  :(

What's the best option for a replacement clutch basket?  I don't care about name recognition (Hinson), just want a good option.  If all of the forged options are problem free, I'll run the Wiseco.   

Hinson: 151-1013 - $259.99
Wiseco: WPP3048 - $169.95
Barnett: 321-45-01014 - $233.10
OEM Kawasaki: 13095-0048 - $282.79  (die cast AL, will wear out quickly)

Good for me that everyone is buying black everything for their dirt bikes these days. Picked up a set of these on clearance for a few dollars more than I'd pay for the two wheel hubs (alone) separately.



Waiting on a couple special tools to arrive for continued engine disassembly. Stuff I know I'm replacing with OEM part numbers:

* Connecting rod & big end bearing
* Main bearings and seals
* Shift and kicker seals
* Clutch cover (for aesthetics)
* Ignition cover (for aesthetics)

Will either use a v-force, rad valve or just get a new rubber intake boot. One on the bike is starting to show signs of dry rot.

Cylinder head was trashed at some point.    Would you have it resurfaced or buy a new one at $191 from Partzilla?  Cylinder is OK.

Also does anyone know the difference between the standard part number and optional part number?

11001A   HEAD-CYLINDER  11001-0107  $191.16
   
11001B   HEAD-CYLINDER | (OPTION) 11001-0108 $191.16

it wont matter which head you get , there both got to much compression the squish is ok , i get a company in australia called two stroke performance to modify the head especially the bowl area , work a lot better , no pinging , better power , easier to jet . these guys have a fuel injected yz125 up and running that flogs the carby version.
