I was looking at the Wiseco piston kits on RockyMountainMC. The picture doesn't show a wrist pin or bearing. Has anyone ordered a piston kit from them? Did it include the pin and bearing?

I believe you have to order them separately

I bought piston+bearings from Rocky Mountain ATV/MC and you must buy the 2 separately.

That's cause it's only generally changed w/ the rod. Not that changing it is a bad thing...

There's a ships-passing-in-the-night thing going on here, folks..

Question: Does the piston come with pin and bearing?

Answers: Order separate and 'piston+bearing' separate.

..which leaves out exactly what of everything you need is or isn't in the 'kit'. Well..as I understand what I read anyway. I don't understand too good sometimes. I don't get the 'implied' parts of missing facts a good lot of the time.


The Pro-X piston (from MaKaw) will come with a pin..and with clips, but not the bearing, not rings. The Wiseco comes with rings, clips, and the pin..but not the bearing.

I have NOT ordered such from RMMC myself.


The description of the Wiseco 'kit' says:

Piston kit includes piston, rings, wristpin and circlips.

I just looked up a KDX 200 'kit' Part# 1038400057. That is the description for that 'kit'. I asked via a 'chat' window:

I'd never re-use a pin or clips. I've never re-used a bearing..but I might be tempted next time I don't have one on-hand.

Certainly never use a Pro-X pin/clips with a Wiseco. I'm sure that's intuitvely obvious to the most casual observer.

This should be an old story..but make sure those clips SNICK into place. Time was when Wiseco pins were a tad long...poorly/improperly seated clips came OUT..and that NOT at a good time!!

Otay.

I thought it odd that it wouldn't also include the bearing, but I guess it doesn't. I didn't want to order the above-mentioned kit, assuming it had everything, only to discover when it arrived at he end of the week that it didn't include the bearing...CRAP. Once again kdxrider.net saves the day.

CRAP:

Comes Requiring Additional Parts.

Yep.
