Hi,
My KMX125 piston ring has broken and damaged the piston which I can
replace quite cheaply (30GBP) but the barrel is also scored. See pics:

This will apparently cost 130GBP to fix properly as it has a Nikasil
liner.
I don't need it to run perfectly - just running will be fine. So my
question is, what would happen if I just replaced the piston? The
score mark doesn't go all the way to the top so I think I will still
get some compression. Will it just damage the new piston/ring?
Cheers for any help.
Steve
