Title: WANTED- rings and piston for Invader 440
Post by: Macs80hp440 on September 10, 2013, 04:48:31 PM

I've got everything else.  I was going to use two good pistons- one original and one "parts unlimited".  I just found I will need original rings for my original piston.  So, I'd like to find either A) original piston with two sets of rings;  or B)  one set of original rings.

Either way, this will get a motor running good enough for family trail riding, eh.

I have two used pistons with rings. I believe one is original, one is not.

Got a pair of original pistons, says Kawasaki Engine Genuine Parts  with shelf sticker 13001-3007. These are brand new, never used and even the boxes are in good condition. No rings or wrist pins.

i cannot say for sure whether or not we have ever even seen an original Kawasaki piston.  We have however used many aftermarket pistons, Wisco, Kimpex, SPI, Parts Unlimited.  They all seem to run fine.  I am however a little superstitious about running matched sets.
