I have a set of low milage (700mi) Kawi pistons I was going to try them on. It may not be as easy as you think... I tried (just for a laugh) to fit an original ring into the top groove of a Cr.Im. piston and it would not fit. The Kawi ring was too thick for the C.I. groove. I have e-mailed the seller and asked about buying extra rings and was told that his supply had run out - at least until next year. Looks like it will cost me $100+ for a complete set of pistons, pins, clips and rings because of my boneheaded twist of the barrel while reinstalling.... Still..., I'm lucky someone's able to help me out, given the paucity of spares. I can't wait to feel this baby pull the way she should Regards, Brian |

Gracious! Doesn't anyone from Wiseco frequent this forum?? It's almost enough to make me sell the rest of the bike for parts and buy a T500 instead http://novascotia.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehi ...
