This monster gained rpm in every gear, at the top end it was a scary sound.  Rider problem maybe.

 I tallied up the bill and it hit $700. including all the broken parts I replaced with ones from Ebay, 2 hours labor for a shop to put in the seals. Then a piston, rings, $60 for boring porting and chamfering plus $170 for tires tubes sprockets and a chain. And that's no labor for me yet.
 I made a kill button from a toggle switch, an Adel clamp and an aluminum tab too.
