Wiseco from your local shop. Should be around $150, depending on how much your shop likes you.

The ones on US ebay can be bargains, but make sure you ask about postage costs before bidding and make sure you're getting a piston kit, not just a piston....
I've got a brand new piston and re-bored barrel for my IT250 here, but the genuine rings are $110! Remembering that a whole Wiseco piston kit is worth ~$150, I'm too bitter and twisted to spend $110 just on rings...
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Nah, they won't - Yamaha went to a longer stroke (and smaller bore) for the YZ250K+.
