Title: 79 Honda CR250 Piston and Big End Kit Wanted
Post by: HL500 on May 14, 2013, 09:28:20 pm

Hi, can anyone tell me where I can get a standard piston kit and big end kit for the CR250?  Best brands, what to stay away from and where to purchase?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
John

HL500,
My personal preference for pistons is wosner or wossner, way better than wiseco in my opinion. Reasonably priced on Evilbay

I've used both weisco and wossner and had no trouble with either, so long as all your clearances are correct and you run it in properly and don't forget to drill your holes for the bridge port and all should be good.....
Got my last Rod kit from Serco and the pistons..

Hi, what do you mean about drilling out the bridge port?  why is this necessary?
