R%%%%Whadaya want the HONE for ; is to BUST THE GLAZE . Fitting a new ring , or maybe if the rig WONT SEAT .
The theory is the ring floats on a overly smooth bore , & requires a ' interface ' to mate succesfully .
Back in Noahs day , ' The New ' Chomed RINGS for Norton Commandos were HARD FACED , The Cycle would burn oil
for 2.000 miles ; Then Stop . The RING had ' seated ' , took that long for the Hard Ring to wear in to the cylinder .
No doubt a chome bore & iron ring would take a while to seat , also .
Typical DOUBLE CROSS HATCH - HONE to ' bust glaze ' even on a new cylinder , is what on a RINGED ENGINE the ' HONE ' is required for ,

Tho weve seen the bloke who tooned Lagans fastest at W.C.s F.F. Rossi , ' relive ' a cylinder / adjust taper , in a few twists of a Brake Hone .
This is on a lapped piston .15 , and No More than SIX light turns thru bore , was utilised .

Thisisabout the only one I can find that dosnt apear to me to be grossly overdone . Maybe 320 or 400 Wt wet & dry paper on a Dowel ,
But it should be held aligned in the palm ? ? , and only a few rotateing passes . Most Bores ( FOX ) ARNT HARDENED .
This is talking about a 40 or 60 ringed motor , to DE-GLAZE , or to clean up a bore for cheapskates peasants & destitudes .
Decadent rissoles can afford to replace them .
Practise makes perfect .
The Bro's CR 250 M got new rings every second M-X meeting , a light brush through with wet & dry if contaminated / lacquered .
Another important consideration is to CLEAN the swine adequately .
The General Theory being the White Rag , a paper towel should come out CLEAN after wipeing it ,
while the rag get dirt on it wiping the bore, Its NOT CLEAN . We want no Grit Reside / contamination .
So cleanliness & a bit of common sense is wot works . Practise on some scrap might be adviseable .
Though these new fangled things may be used for that .
