something might have not been put back together properly maybe power valves kick shaft mechanism try them first i hope you ran it pretty oily when you were runing it in prefrebly mineral oil it would be hard to seize if you were just running it in and if you used essembly lube try the first two i wrote at the begining

 Come on cman just pop the top end off & let us know what's wrong with the ol' RM?? I would "unfortunetly" be willing to bet that the ol' girl seized up on ya. I personally don't think you gave it a proper heat cycle or lubed the piston & needle bearings enough.I've seen this happen before to alot of my friends anxious to ring their bike out after a top end rebuild. Not knowing if you installed the piston or someone else but was the circlips properly seated when it was put back together? ;)
