Vertex Vs Wiseco Pistons ?????

[Hoony]

anyone tried Vertex Pistons?

i have run Wiseco pistons in my CR's for 20 years and been happy with them, the vertex is $77 cheaper than the Wiseco for my CR500. any one tried them?

Also anyone tried and LA Sleeve? $ 224 for my bike (its on last oversize)

yeah hooney vertex are a better piston wiseco are ok but in my own bike i would use a vertex or prox
been using all three for years had no trouble, always use vertex at work if available for that model if not we throw in a siezco  i mean wiseco but if you can get genuine go for it 







it ran last time i started it

Vertex are very good especially their Pro and Race Pro series.

Thanks Lozza & holeshot, Vertex it is then.

OEM Honda pistons are still available but i reckon the original Honda pistons are crap.

Ian Williams Tuning in Adelaide recommends Vertex instead of Wiseco in  CR 500's. Also Wossner are pretty good. im gonna try one of those.

used LA sleeves in four strokes before and had no issues with them.
