Default Re-honing Cylinder walls?

Just wondering what you guys use to re hone your cylinder walls. I was thinking about getting a flex hone so I can hone the wals on my single cam motor but wasn't sure which one I'd need. Would a 76mm hone work?

Thanks!

You would need a stone hone, no harsher then 400 grit. I've heard 600 grit works best.

The is the hone I was referring to. http://www.flex-hone.com/Index...s.htm Just wondering if a 76mm hone would work on a 75mm bore. (Which is what a D series motor is right?)

Wash the cylinders with warm soapy water, immediately oil to prevent rusting.
