Piston failure
Posted: Sat Aug 13, 2016 7:57 pm
Hello,
A mate of mine called me to say that his kr1s was riding on 1 Cylinder.
Checked the bike a saw that the rhs cylinder had zero compression.
Got the cylinders of a saw that the ring peg of the top ring was gone and 2 pieces where broken of the top of the cylinder.
Now here is the question These are the new type original pistons how is this possible ,I know the older type original pistons had this problem but never heard of that the newer type had this aswel
Dus anybody have had the same problem with these original pistons.
Cheers jarno,
