I cant find anyone here (NZ) who has done this, or can do this without it being cheaper to go and buy a new case.

Any suggestions from your side of the ditch appreciated.

If you have to re sleeve the bores ..... then i think you will find lots more problems with the crankcase.

Yes it is cheaper to purchase a new case. I can not recall anyone doing this process
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

I paid $80 for crank & case a few weeks ago. It's getting built into a hottie right now. Sleeving would be hours setting up, machining etc - therefore $$$$

Thanks.

The case is only 1000 miles old, it is std apart from this problem. I may end up sending it to the US, cost dependant, or it may become an expensive coffee table leg !!!
