Piston ring brands
« on: February 25, 2018, 11:00:47 AM »
Any recommended brands for piston rings for a CB750, or ones to avoid? Poking around on Yamiya they have both Riken rings marked manufactured by Honda and Riken rings made by Riken. Not sure if there is a difference...

I don't think there is a big difference. Honda probably doesn't make rings themselves anyway. I have used Hap Jones rings in the past and they were fine.
