my mk1 p200e heat seized, I had noticed the engine was sounding a bit rattlier than normal, I pulled the clutch in early and was able to ride it home, removed the barrel and piston which had light scoring that I cleaned up and refitted with new rings, it still has a loud rattle so im going to rebore the barrel 1st oversize. what is the recommended piston/bore clearance. cheers

If it's got a loud rattle after a mild seize, then I doubt it's piston slap, especially with new rings in.
If you must rebore, take it to a scooter shop to do it, they'll stock the piston and rings too

... If you must rebore, take it to a scooter shop to do it, they'll stock the piston and rings too That's surely the best way to go. But you may want to inquire what they are going to do. If I understand correctly the clearance should be 0.215mm. Don't shoot the messenger if I'm wrong, but that's the information I found from here: www.scooterhelp.com/manuals/VNX1T.VSX1T.service.manual/48.jpg (scooterhelp.com)
