Urgently needed- KDX400 or KX420 piston
« on: July 10, 2013, 02:31:22 pm »
Anyone got any ideas on where I can get a KDX400 or KX420 piston from?  Wiseco don't list anything, is getting one made possible?  Maybe some other bike with an 80 to 83mm bore and 19mm pin?

The 83, 84 KDX200 also suffer from piston shortages. A person  in the USA had wiesco make 5 new pistons. This was the minimum order. He sold the remainder on ebay.

Rick couldn't help me but Wossner in the US said they can custom make the pistons for me, $375 for one, $600 for two or $800 for four, sounds ok.

Sorry John, bum advice. My piston came from Woessner. Should have been more careful.

Let me know what happens - I may be interested in getting in on the act if you go for the custom piston kit....   Haven't had my KDX400 apart yet, but...
