To replace you need a gasket kit, cylinder, piston, wrist pin, cylinder head (complete with valves, etc), and cylinder cover. There are other small parts you will need as well. Your best best is to buy a complete used top end from somebody or go to a website like bike bandit that has the diagram of all the parts.

i wouldnt follow that advice too closely...

first off...why do you need to replace the top end?

Is it low on compression, burning oil, valves/cam all f'd up???

Bore/hone your current cylinder, new piston kit, valves and cam are probably fine, gasket kti and youre set

Well Right Now It Just Smokes Really Bad And I Am Guessing That It Is The Top End I Was Sitting For About4 Days And Never Fired And It Ran Fine Without No Smoking And Then I Fired It And Now It Smokes Like Crazy

since your gonna have to pull the head and buy a gasket kit i would pull it the rest of the way apart and check the ring gap if its still in service limit hone it and replace the rings, just my 2 cents i would also buy a manuel so you will have all the tork specs and service limits on the ring gap
