piston

I'm doing a top end rebuild on a 02 Yamaha grizzly but not sure if i have to replace the piston rod as well due to wear. It feels smooth but is obviously scratched and pitted. I'm hoping a new crank is not necessary and appreciate any knowledgeable opinions. I don't know the history of the...

I recently bought a hot rods 700 bottom end to rebuild my grizzly 550 and was gonna put a 10.25 compression piston in it. Turns out the bottom end kit I bought is a 5mm stroker crank, do y'all think I'll have any issues with clearance between the valves and the piston with a stage 1 hot cams...

I have a 2009 Grizzly 450 I currently have a JBS Sheave, cam plate, greaseless weights, modded stock exhaust, jetted, and modded stock air box. I was looking into getting a hc 11:1 piston and a webcams cam. What kind of performance and reliability should I expect? What does the cam and piston...

I just put in a new je 11.1 piston because I had my timming jump bend one valve and wreck the piston. Had the cylinder worked by a local machine shop, put in the new valve and piston and wrings got it running, and it is smoking like crazy. Also is pushing oil out of the crankcase vent into the...

Im rebuilding my 660 topend going to go with an 11.1 piston standard bore. What pistons have you guys all used and had good luck with. Almost all the engine builders recomend the cp and if they recomend anything else they say to use a je. Just want to hear what everybody on hear has had good...

OK so i have tried all of the tricks to cure my 660's smoking habit. sea foam, marvel mystery oil, lucas oil treatment. and it still smokes. i have decided (with members advice) that at a minimum i will need to replace the rings and valve guides. if it turns out that i need to rebore and...

So I have been wanting to do the 488 BBK kit on the 450 for almost a year now. I recently started smoking on start up and figured while I was taking care of why (rings, valve seals etc.) that it would be a good time to just rebuild the top end. Chances are the 450 will be making a trip for the...

Hey guys i was wondering i see on Yamahas site the copmression ratio for different quads what exactly is compresstion ratio? I know what compression is just not the ratio. Also when you see on ebay a piston is like 42mm what does that mean? and how do you tell the brand of the piston? I know...

wondering what 11:1 wiseco piston upgrade would do for better throttle response, do not know what the stock pistons' ratio is. I found a place that upgrades the cam as well , has anyone gone this route with thier 450?

i was told i need a .10 over piston cant seem to find one so i guess this cant be right ?

So I am in the process of splitting the case of my Grizzly 450 because the transmission has no reverese / no neutral. So I pulled the cylinder head, cylinder and then removed the piston from the connecting rod. Well I accidently knocked the piston off my bench when reaching for the phone... ( I...
