I read your post on the SV site. Obviously you're not happy with the outcome of your situation. I've never heard anyone complain about
Yoyo before. Hopefully Fred willl jump on here soon...

The bike was dead nuts cold and the

You mean
monocoque? Using a monocoque frame doesn't preclude the use or need of a subframe.
To answer your question, I'd imagine manufacturing a frame that included the subframe as one piece would be considerably more expensive. It'd also make repairs after a wreck a real bitch. How many here have had to replace a subframe? I think it would truly suck if that was actually part of the frame.

I can tell by looking at the clutch plate that the rider is twisted.

I make/made a "tool" out of the old bearing inner race.
I hand grind the inner diameter enough so that the "tool" will slide over the stem far enough to seat the new bearing.
I have some steel pipe/s of different inside
diameters and lengths (for different stem sizes) but I also keep as spares every old bearing I've ever removed (except for repeats) to use as "press pieces".
You can hammer...

FWIW....OEM pistons are very good. I would go OEM pistons and a thinner headgasket and degree the cams.
I also bought Wiesco pistons in the past and don't remember them being cheaper than OEM.

Get an EM Pro.
