Blew my engine yesterday

Yeah I wanna swap the guts for a 6 speed, for highway/interstate riding. I also grabbed a scorpion clutch. MAN that is nice.

So having put about 150 miles on the new Ultima so far, holy crap this thing wants to fly. I've been riding like I normally do and keeping the heat down with short trips & long stops. Not rippin thru the gears real hard, but I took her to 100mph for a mile or 2 yesterday. It's so easy to do now lol, 100mph feels like nothing. Trying to follow the engine's manual as closely as I can. But so far she runs beautifully!

Got the old motor home & started dismantling it.
Rear piston
Rear head, looks like some cracks in the valves, nice big ding in the aluminum at the 9 o'clock position
Front cylinder, note the chunk of metal resting on the piston
Front head
Rear piston after I pulled the cylinders
The chunk from the front cylinder
