    Robert is quoting an old rule. You used to be able to run parts of same brand manufacture.

    Rule interpretation is not and shouldnt be Roberts problem as he only supplies what is asked. It is up to the individual to be literate, responsible, and sporting (and fun).
    The most important thing to remember in the 600 and superbike class is if it dosent say you can change something - then you cant.

    Interesting that Robert confirmed two other Suzuki's using them, bit of a whoopsy there I think.
    I only suspected he was using them anyway, thanks Rob!
    Thats a good point! Kawasaki make some very tasty genuine parts that would be great to use!
    I dont think it really matters what you use from what ive seen.... A friend of mine bought a front running superbike from last year and after rebuilding it found aftermarket pistons

    Has that changed again? I just checked the rules on mnz site, I guess its cheaper/easier to buy aftermarket than machine the std pistons if required.

    7-4 Cylinder. Stroke must remain as homologated. Bore free. There is no restriction on the type
    of piston used.

    Last seasons rules said '07 and newer bikes had to have std pistons, so they must have changed it back to any pistons allowed, they used to have the changes from the previous season in bold so it was easy to see
