yamahaman244 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I would get wisco they are the best or at leased get forged pistons instead of cast ones Quote
yamahaman242 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I would get some wiscos they are good ones for what you pay Quote
AKheathen Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 wiseco, wsm, and namura are all quality pistons......there is also one from the uk, but the name escapes me right now. .040=1mill Quote
will fox Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) thanks for the info but i have herd bad stuff about numara pistons wiseco pistons r to expensive for me how about pro-x? i found some for 130$ top end rebuild kit and the m&h pistons are forged Edited October 29, 2009 by will fox Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I think if Wiseco is to expensive you need a new hobby. Quote
will fox Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Posted October 29, 2009 yea dude im 15 without a job kinda hard to come up with the money Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 go mow some lawns lol, just jokin. Im with the others and say wiseco! Quote
SNTBANSHEE Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Try Ebay. Wiseco pistons are very reasonable there and if that is still to much I have to agree with the other posters. Time to get a new ride. Quote
yamahaman244 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Hey man I'm 15 to I rebuild min I would still go with wisco u can get them for 185 for the pistons and gaskets witch ain't bad Quote
RILS Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I like wisecos and thats what I run in all my stuff. Having said that I have put a good many pro-x in motorcross bikes for other people at their request and didnt have any problems with them. Quote
AKheathen Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 i'm curious as to what bad you have heard about namura.....are they machined out of spec, crack, teflon separation? i know many just call them junk because they are not wiseco, or have an asian sounding name. pro-x is just a factory replacement that cost less. the better ones i mentioned are made from better alloys and are improvements in strength, reliability, and performance.

RILS Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) Ive never had any experience with namura. That is correct about the prox, I put some in a few yz125s that were coated and had a little higher dome they were higher then the wisecos price if I remember right this was around 2000. To add the last 65mm wisecos I bought I gave $150 dollars for so the price difference is not alot. Edited October 30, 2009 by RILS Quote
will fox Posted October 30, 2009 Author Report Posted October 30, 2009 well i looked around on here and like 3 or 4 posts said that numara is bad and they said the piston breaks within a couple weeks yea i might jus go with wiseco jus cause like all of u said to go with it ill jus save a lil more Quote
