Yeah... What's the story with that piston face?

And based on the damage around the edge of the piston, something other than air and fuel was definitely banging around in there.

Top of the piston was a lovely chocolate brown. Got weird looking on camera from degreaser and a wire brush.

Back together! Second kick! Best it's ever sounded!
Adjust some cables and I'll get some footage once I'm on the road.
