My 99 had a poor quality casting.

All 220's is my understanding. My new Wiseco is on its way.

From what I have researched over the years on 220's, you are taking your chances with stock piston. I have a fresh Weisco ready to drop in my '97 220.

thank you all! unbelievably I found one from the origianl owner that only has 16 hours on it...it's sat in his garage for over 8 years after his one and only riding season. Iit's a creampuff and he has kept fresh lubricants in it and fired it up periodically...this is the dirt bike version of the proverbial little old lady who only drove her car to church on Sundays
