when i bought my 48 last august the pistons were froze up, i figured i had nothing to lose and made a jig out of wood and tapped on the pistons till they freed up,lo and behold 2000 miles later its still runnin great allthough it burned some oil until the rings reseated themselves.its down to normal consumption now .wonder if i could get lucky with that 38? after all ,all it is is a stuck valve.i guess the real problem is ,between the seat ,correct speedo and ammeteryour looking at 2000-2500 to fix .add that to the worst case scenario of a motor job to and your in the 26 k range .ive contacted this fella, he may be interestd in my 41 u(i hate that bike!)so mabey itll work out
