well i rode it today basically for the first time in my buddies field just straight back and forth and it now has no compression on a 20 hour engine i do believe it really has 20hours too because all the gaskets look brand spankin new... i think it over heated? i think it did maybe stuck a ring... well anyways is there any way to a get a electric cooling fan for the 250r to turn on by a switch i have a ricky or electrix stator would that power a cooling fan? i will post pics when i tear the top end off hopefully no sleeve replacment is required i was just having fun...
are you kidding really!?!?! wow update on my new quad i just got

After looking at those engine pics, thats a low octane gas or high ignition timming melt down & I hate to tell you, but the bottom end needs checking to see how much of that piston is hiding in those bearings.
If it hadnt burned through to the inside of the piston the bottom end would have probably been ok, but its no telling how much hot aluminum sprayed into it & if not checked & cleaned out, just waiting to mess something else up.
I would be afraid to put a fresh cylinder back on top without checking it first.

ya that too it was running at high rpms
You had some pretty bad detonation going on there. As deep as the pits are in that dome, it's not even reuseable. There's no way to get those deep holes out of it. Even if you got them close, and smoothed out some, they'll still create hotspots in the dome in the future, and then you'll be fighting pre-ignition.
Prolonged detonation will always lead to pre-ignition, but pre-ignition won't necessarily cause detonation.
