2. What problems may I have?

it might work, but you're really pushing it. you will have problems keeping it cool. what kind of riding do you do?

I am going to sell the bike as soon as I am done fixing it.
If going to .100 over is too much then I am not going to do it.
I don't like doing things half-a$$ed. I wouldn't want a bike that is going to die soon. Sounds like I need to find a non-expensive cylinder off of ebay. I can't afford to get it resleeved right now. It is in indiana and it will be sold as soon as I get it fixed.

On a air cooled machine like that. It spells trouble. If that thing isnt broken in ever so litely. And if the gas and oil arnt set up exactly right. It is going to over heat and sieze up. If you are going to sell it right away i would find another cylinder for it. Other wise who ever you sell it to is probable going to lock it up the day they get it. And then blame you for selling them a piece of juck. Or want there money back. So the safe bet is not doing it.
