Yes it was a joy to ride Chris.....not sure it stopped at 6,600 though ;-) and to be honest as a 750 it shouldn't have.....
if you look at those pistons they have been machined not only for vavle cut outs, but for squish, which will have reduced the distance between the ring groove and the top of the piston and that dodgy valve cut out.
Have you made 100% sure there are no witness marks from piston contact with the head? Whatever pistons go in will need careful set up and machining.
Have sent email to Norman asking details of his JE pistons....he might have some 74.5s
