Pretty sure that Kawasaki used them as factory pistons for a certain period...Jeff and Jay will have more input on that though...

That is what I thought. I would love to get a full set of four. When I bought The extra jug that came with them, One of them was bad. I would have to dig them out, but I am almost positive they were 67 or 68 MM.

if i'm not mistaken the 450 pistons took the motor out to 1015 or 1045 i'm thinking jay could clear that up though.


The standard 450 piston was 70mm and made it 1015 4th over 71 mm was a 1045.

We actually did some 3rd over 70.75mm that were 1038s.
