Piston preference?
I'm thinking of tearin down the too end of my bike to inspect the kips system. While right there I was going to change the piston and rings. I used to only use oem back in the day. I see there are many manufacturers of pistons now a days. Any opinions or preference and why?

200 or 220? I believe wiseco or wossner? are the preferred choices. Others will chime in I'm sure.

I see I need to update my signature.
1999 kdx200.
Never even heard of wossner, lol.
The Athena one looks interesting because it seems to be Teflon coated.

Re: Piston preference?
piston skirts don't wear down, so why do you think having them coated is a good idea?
but doing ceramic coating on the piston top is a good mod for many reasons.
the stock piston is fine.

Re: Piston preference?
I ways thought Wiseco was the preferred choice of most riders on this site. Interesting to hear different opinions.
