Piston Rings 69.5mm

#1 PostAuthor: Garn 1 » Tue Nov 29, 2011 2:17 pm

Can anyone help? I'm after rings for these 69.5 mm pistons.
I have four 69.5 mm pistons.
They have ART embossed on one of the sides and 108 on the other. They are domed and are probably 10:1 compression.
The ring sizes are :
Top Ring ..... 1.0 mm thick (nom).
2nd Ring ..... 1.2 mm thick (nom), with the recess on the inside and facing up.
Oil ring (3 piece) ..... 2.45 mm thick (nom).

Where will I get rings for these pistons? Any suggestions?
Noting that the usual 70 mm ART pistons in Z1000's have a 1.2 mm top ring with the others about the same, as above.

wiljanuk replied, These people supplied rings for my Yoshi pistons,fair price. Believe you send piston + return postage and they match them up.

Just thought,a while back there was a Cosworth piston kit on E bay.
£180 Buy Now. When you read the listing ,"the kit",had no rings?
Nobody bid/got relisted. Cheaper buy now/make an offer.
So I phoned seller ...ring,ring.."allo ,Cosworths.. :shock:
I ask," do you know where I could get rings for this kit?
...." `ang on I`ll have a look."
Long story short,£8 per ring set per piston!

Kawasaki,[ labelled ] piston rings £25 per piston?
