Restore your engine’s power and reliability with high-quality boring and honing. This service is designed for high-performance two-stroke cylinders that require oversized pistons due to wear or scoring.
Service Includes
Inspection: Thorough measurement of your cylinder’s current bore and evaluation of port chamfers.
Boring: Performed on specialized equipment to ensure a straight and round bore.
Cross-Hatch Honing: Finished with a multi-stage plateau hone for optimal oil retention and immediate ring seating.
Port Chamfering: All port edges are hand-deburred and radiused to prevent ring snagging and extend engine life.
Final Cleaning: Deep cleaned to remove all honing grit; ready for assembly out of the box.
Shipping & Turnaround
We aim for a transparent and efficient process to get you back on the track or trail:
Inbound Shipping: The customer is responsible for shipping the cylinder to our shop. Please ensure it is packaged securely to prevent damage during transit.
Arrival Confirmation: As soon as your package is received at our facility, we will send you a confirmation email to let you know it has arrived safely.
2-Week Guarantee: We guarantee a maximum 14-day turnaround from the day we receive your cylinder to the day it ships back out.
Free Return Shipping: We cover the cost of shipping the finished cylinder back to your door.
Piston Options
To ensure a perfect fit, the cylinder must be bored to the specific piston being used.
Supply Your Own: Send your new oversized piston along with the cylinder.
We Can Supply One: Don't have a piston yet? We can provide a high-quality replacement (Vertex, Wiseco, or Wössner) at an additional cost. We will source the correct oversize for your build, ensuring the bore is matched to the piston for maximum performance.

Shipping was fast, the product is great!
When you could still buy the shift forks from Kawasaki they came out of spec :-(
These are in spec and far better quality than Kawi's forks.
They are in the bike and vastly improved the shifting on this KX500 BEAST!!!
Thanks Luke!
Unfortunately, the gas cap got scratched during shipping,
but after a few friendly emails, the problem was resolved perfectly for both sides.
Friendly service, quick solutions, absolutely reliable
Top-notch shop👍
Everything I have received from TSO has been excellent, I was excited to see TSO had the pressure plate because they was the only ones , thanks for amazing products and service
Very well made pipe fits good have not been riding yet so don’t know if it leaks out two stroke oil like the stock one does we will see when it gets cool out for riding
Very quick shipping, and super pleased with the quality of this stator cover! The anodized black blends nicely with the satin black powder coat on my KX500 engine.
Quality parts!!! Very happy with what I received for the money!! Fit and finish is top tier. Also happy to support a company who is helping keep these two strokes alive! I will be back for more parts soon!
Bearings were a perfect fit. A couple of shaft bearings were on back order, which I reicieved shortly after a majority of my orders arrived. Quality of everything is immaculate I would certainly do business with Luke again. I honestly wish I could have purchased the billet cases for my kx500af build after seeing the precision on the covers and head. Highly recommend TSO
Haven't installed these parts yet but the maching and quality looks better than OEM. Looking forward on trying out their other specialized parts offered.
I ordered the case saver for my 98 kx250, the price of the TSO case saver was very close to the same as the original kawasaki one.
The difference is huge, The TSO case saver is made of stainless steel for extra strength and great looks.
Shipping and customer service was very fast and included mounting hardware.
First time I ordered from TSO, but it won't be my last.
Thanks TSO for offering a quality part and great customer service!
So the cylinder head is immaculate and performs perfectly with the decompression valve. Much much easier to start this 500cc 2 stroke. I just wish I the decompression valve was coming off the side instead of straight out the top. Decompression valve creates interference taking out the spark plug when everything is mounted and the bike is together. Purchased a new wrench to remove the spark plug and all is ok. Overall happy 😁
