Hmmmm, yep, I thought around £250 at first when mine seized and now the repair bill will be around £1500 all in, the parts are over £900, but that does include 2 pistons, 2 replates, 1 repair, 1 head, HRC jet kit, a clutch, a gear selector shaft, chain and sprocket and all the bits and bobs to rebuild it. Till you get in there and look you just don't know whats lurking. It soon adds up.
If it was an '18 or '21 you could argue it's a write off. See it all here Should be nice when it's done though.

Doing the piston itself is no big job, it's if (like mine) the chrome has been ripped off so the crank really needs to come out, and if something actually caused it to die getting that right too so it doesn't do it again too soon.
