    My "guess" is it's detonated and broken the ring lands.

    Problem #2 Oil Leakage.

    It's not always easy to find but it's sold in many places branded as "HondaBond" "YamaBond" "SuziBond" and so on so if you have a Bike dealership handy it's an alternative source.

    coolant passages??WTF?

    If you don't have the means to measure temp changes along/across the block I'd leave them alone you could do more harm than good. Same reason I don't support the mod that drills the hole at the back of the head that's blank, I don't "know" what the net effect is and have never seen any data...

    NA-T Build Head Gasket Options

    All it takes is one bad rattle/detonation to destroy the composite HG so personally with the higher comp inadequate engine controls (assuming some sort of piggyback) I'd go for a 2mm Cometic installed correctly.
