My reference to not hone the bore came directly from the Briggs & Stratton Workshop Manual which clearly states Ally bores are NOT to be honed / deglazed.
This is how it appears: page 2 section 9, Pistons - Rings - Rods
Note: Do not deglaze cylinder walls when installing rings in aluminium cylinder engines..

I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.
