90.5mm vertex new ring end gap .022

[M.F.D.B.]

on and I got my last wiseco (2 weeks ago) for considerably less than glens listed price on a prox

Oh ya?

[dannygraves]

yup I got homies wit da hook ups

[glen howell]

Those are not my prices that's L.A. Sleeves List prices. Besides I'm a stocking dealer for wiseco I carry over 60 pistons in stock all the time thats over $7000.00 in wiseco alone. Bear in mind all in all for CR-500s engine parts ,trans parts, clutches ,crankcases ,crankshafts, heads ,bars ,grips,seals, gaskets,new cylinders, rod kits,chain,sprockets,exhaust pipes etc.etc. My shop is worth around 1million dollars,Equipt. and parts for the CR-500 only .So as you can see I could give pistons away if I wanted. But do you take a dozen eggs and a pound of bacon,loaf of bread,potatoes for hash browns and ask the waitress and cook at dennys to cook them for you.I have stated before for any hoon that wants to furnish his own parts I would be happy to do his or her machining.What kind of work do you do I'm sure I or someone here could buy what ever you make or sell for a cheeper price than whatever there M.F.G recomended Price is. But your company after a while might have to lay you off because they could not stay in business very long without making a profit. Glen (TEAM GSS) N.A.H.A #42 A.M.A

I ordered new standard rings from Honda and they were at .020 end gap right out of the box. That's with a cylinder measured at 3.504 (like new).

So much for the .020 max end gap. Put em in and run it. Mine works perfect. I'm surprised how loose an in spec piston and rings are. They're that way for a reason...so they won't seize up.

[M.F.D.B.]

I hear that if you dont put the pistons rings in then you dont have to worry about seizures...

[CR500R7]

No you don't have to worry about much at all, more than likely the bloody thing won't run at all.

It would be cheap.

[dannygraves]

if you kick it hard enough and never drop the rpms below like 3000, it would probably run

[CR500R7]

Maybe we should get brit to try it and report back to us.
