Hey..anybody know of a place i can...
« on: December 20, 2006, 01:00:11 PM »
...buy some rings for my CB500  Forged Wiseco 30 over pistons, or will i have to cut & finish some standard 30 overs with a file & feeler guage?
just curious as these are pistons from the mid 80's, but still in fine condition
any help would be appreciated
Thanks,

You got two problems
(1) wiseco rings are probably different thickness from the honda ones
(2) honda over bore in metric stages not thou's which aint exactly the same

Only thing i can suggest is ask wiesco
