I will describe the rod as having the same oil hole, without as big of a knife edge, but thet have a strip milled out in the middle of both sides.

The piston has a speckled appearance (this is the only way I can describe it), almost like it has a coating. The rear exhaust port is symmetrical without the flares up top but maybe bigger over all. And the fit is extremely tight. I hope my starter box will turn it over. Even hot it looks to be a pitta. I am dropping this in a ninja or spec case (haven't decided)

Does this sound right? Also have a ebmods head button. Can I use it? Have re10,re11, 086, 2013, 2058. Also have some L headers.


chances are the speckled piston means it is a cast piston... look on the underside of the piston and see if it looks machined or cast...
