There is still more to come from this engine and it has been a privilege to work with Luc so far and I look forward to future colaboration as well

    So the point of telling us about this is ?
    But you want us to help you - which we can as a group tell you all about the power band dip , its common knowledge.
    Get real.

ID:	343180 very good big end brg.

    Rod kits with this style of flat big end bearing are much better than the old copper coated W bearing which tends to break up.

    I saw the "L" on the rod and immediately thought "Long" brand, and F5 of course.

    I dug out a ac cr80 Clutch cover the oher day turns out they bolt onto a MB for those that wanted to delete the oilpump balancer set up to fia RS frame.

    I also found the FZR250 rocker cover i swore i never had, that was for the Grumph engine..

    One of the Honda Leads runs the MB/CR big ed as well. either the 100 or 80SS

    The RG changed all that but heck I was in my mid twenties by then.
    Sheesh.

    but it might have been more to do with the bearing?
    Years ago i remember someone wandering around the "Powder Keg" hotel in Ohakune , half a beer in one hand and half a con-rod in the other telling a sorrow filled story about Long rods... i think he ended up a sad drunk

    Probably ended up spitting out diced carrots. He did well to walk after a broken rod.

    Not sure why I'm wasting time and forum space writing this, but anyway.
    Why the h-- spend time on a forum intended for sharing knowledge and ideas with such attitude?
    Nothing good will come out of that for anyone, and certainty not for you lucf.

    Well if it was me, I resent that. I'm not Sad.

    But mine broke in Palmy and the bike shop I bought it from was given it to show the distributor.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Hello

    Long time not posting.

    Sadly the shinning kz kart pistons don't fit the honda T-Port shape. Leaving small entrances from cranckcase to the exhaust port at TDC..

    one more piece for the shelf

    Cheers

    Depending on which KZ piston you tried, there may be one that has a larger radius to keep the exhaust covered.
    Last year Meteor released a TM KZ 10C piston that had the larger radius as shown in the pic. Casting 2630 (117gm) on top/left of original style 2311.
    They also have a flat top version the TM factory team was using in 2018 as well with the larger radius.

    Hi.

    Thanks.

    This is actually a Iame piston because I need the 29,50mm height!

    I will contact the dealer if they have this version for IAME

    Don’t know if this helps but:

    Kawasaki 1994 KX125 Flat Top Piston has a 29.5 Compression Height & a 15mm Pin

    1993 KX125 Flat Top Piston has a 29mm Compression Height & a 16 mm Pin.

    Maybe (most likely) posted before, but what the...
    Up here in the north it starts to get dark and cold so everything easing the pain is welcomed.

    Ones again I’m amazed by the Jamathi-story and the complete sacrifice and devotion...and all the success and know how accumulated. And now shared with us through sites like Kiwibiker! ��
