I've got a few different pins that HAD been marked to say what they were from, theres 6 and not 2 the same. I need to compare a balance factor and need to know what baseline Stock weight is in grams

The one that I have is 82.16 grams. I'm not 100% sure if it's OEM, but the piston was.

I just checked a brand new OEM I'm about to install and it weighs right at 3 ounces on my postal scale. It's not digital but seems to be fairly accurate.

82.16 grams is 2.9 ounces so robetg's pin is probably OEM also.

Home from work, so I could do some measurements.

The wiseco pin width is 60.0 mm and it weights 61.2 gram.

i just got the scale out for the old pistons i have
OEM 89mm 404.6 pin 82.1 69mm wide
prox 89.75mm 418.7 pin 79.4 69mm wide
636 wiseco 89mm 374.2 pin 59.9 60mm wide
554 wiseco 89.50mm 360.3 pin 84 60mm wide

weights are without rings or clips, and obviously there is going to be a small change with oversizes

i'll have a pair of 2 different new honda pistons to weigh tommorrow too.
