If Wiseco makes an .080 oversize piston, I imagine that's the absolute cheapest way to go. I assume you've measured the piston and found it's under the minimum spec diameter, so that just a ring replacement won't be enough?

If it were my bike and I was planning on keeping it, I'd consider have U.S. Chrome plate the liner wuth Nikasil to the standard or 1st-oversize bore (they can add about .025" of Nikasil for an .050" bore reduction). This is a much better solution than replacing the cast-in liner with a press-fit one, in my opinion. Cost is about $270.
