So my yamaha warrior atv quad has a piston in it, the guy told me its bored .50 over.. what does that mean?

Does that mean its not a 350 cc anymore? what cc would it be with this bored over?So my yamaha warrior atv quad has a piston in it, the guy told me its bored .50 over.. what does that mean?
the yamaha warrior has a bore and stroke of 83mm x 64.5mm. that means the the hole where you discovered the piston is, is 83mm in diameter. the stroke, or how far the piston travels from top dead center to bottom dead center ( total distance that it moves from top to bottom before it starts to come back up again ) is 64.5mm. using a formula for calculating displacement, it figures out to be 348.98cc or 349cc. If you have it all down correctly, the staing of .5 over would be in millimeters or .020" ( 20 thousanths of an inch ) overbore. that would mean that you now have a bore of 83.5mm calculating out to be a displacement of 353.2cc or 353. If he told you it was bored 50over, he may also be talking inches. .fifty thousandths of an inch convert to 1.27mm so the bore is now 84.27mm. you now have a displacement of 359.74cc or 360cc. Most cylinders, not all, have the capability to be taken to an overbore of .080" or 2mm. Now, did the guy tell you .5mm or 50 over. Little bit of a difference there. Boring isn't to make more power, it's for getting the most use out of your cylinder. Want more power? that's a different question.So my yamaha warrior atv quad has a piston in it, the guy told me its bored .50 over.. what does that mean?
it means that the mechanic bored your cylinder 0.50 (fifty thousandths of an inch) bigger than it was.



mechanics do this to take any scorn marks that have occurred in the engine,the mechanic also does what is refered to as "cross hatching" this is done so that the new piston rings will seat (allow oil to go in the cross hatches reducing heat in the engine,and it also allows the engine to have good compression as well).



with out doing a cross hatch in the cylinder it would cause your piston rings to wear out fast,lower compression ratio,and excessive engine heat which will cause cylinder scoring.



as far as gaining any CC you wouldn't be gaining hardly anything,be that 0.50 is equal to .5 mm you would have to convert the half millimeter to cc,and being that cc is bigger than mm it would be a fraction of a cc.





CHEERS!!!!!!!So my yamaha warrior atv quad has a piston in it, the guy told me its bored .50 over.. what does that mean?
If 4 cylinder, then 350 for real, as they tend to be 348cc as standard. but called 350.



If 2 cylinder. start at 248 and get bored to 249



(that's adding 0.5 to each pston - you can't ust do one or it blows up.)
It means the stock bore is now .050 of an inch bigger in diameter.

What is a Better ATV to choose for Sport use, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, or Kawasaki?

I am deciding on a Sport ATV to buy but don't know which company to choose from, I am looking for the best performance and best accessories, your reply will be greatly appreciatedWhat is a Better ATV to choose for Sport use, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, or Kawasaki?

Really for sport atvs they all are pretty much the same, i'm not a huge fan of the kawasaki but they have a solid engine. I have a honda 450r and I love it befor that I rode some yamahas. really you cna't go wrong with those 4 brands so just get something you'd think you'd enjoy. I'm not just throwing this crap out i've done lots of research before I buy any atvs and talk to lots of people, I like suzuki I believe they make a damn nice 4 stroke engine. All are fast and performance wise, skys the limit for bolt ons and upgrades. my 450 can now keep up with my buddies 660 raptor.

    Have any ATV mechanics out there to answer why my 1987 yamaha warrior burns oil?

    Valve stem worn, valve guide worn, valve stem seal, stuck oil ring on the piston.



    If it smokes when you are slowing down it is you valves leaking oil past the guides.



    Smokes all of the time it is your rings.



    If you can do the over haul or got some one that can do it on the side That motor has replaceable valve guides you can get for $20 each.



    If the cylinder wall is worn to bad That will run you $220.

    Piston ring set $30



    It all come down to is it worth it to you to spend money on it or get some thing different.



    The following web site is where I got the prices from. I don't know the availability of the parts.



    Good luck.Have any ATV mechanics out there to answer why my 1987 yamaha warrior burns oil?

    Hey, 20 years wasn`t bad!

    I HAVE A YAMAHA WOLVERINE ATV. IS THERE ANY OTHER OIL I CAN USE INSTEAD OF YAMALUBE?

    THE ENGINE OIL GOES THROUGH THE CLUTCHES SO I NEED A OIL THAT WONT **** UP MY CLUTCHES. ANY IDEAS???I HAVE A YAMAHA WOLVERINE ATV. IS THERE ANY OTHER OIL I CAN USE INSTEAD OF YAMALUBE?
    Any SJ-rated 10w40 automotive oil will work. Only the 5w30 and lighter oils have enough friction modifiers to make your clutch slip. Don't waste your money on "motorcycle" oil.I HAVE A YAMAHA WOLVERINE ATV. IS THERE ANY OTHER OIL I CAN USE INSTEAD OF YAMALUBE?
    Here is a great site that describes what kind of oil to use in your engine. Basically you need an oil with an API Service category SG or JASO MA. Brand is less important than these service types.

    Valvoline makes a motorcycle oil that can be purchased at any auto part store for about half the price of Yamalube and meets the same requirements. Hope I have been helpful.
