DeeJ..genuine piston set part# 12104-46820-100  This is listed a piston set and should include rings but double check beforehand. (rings alone # 12140-28630) The local oz/nz dealers may not show the number for the 'set' as I had that problem with the 400..they had no reference to such numbers and the system would not let them order it. Maybe the US had slightly different marketing for spares..dunno  ???

You'll have to use the 77 RM125B fiche as the later models only showed up to 0.50mm  ::) Both items showing available ex Alpha-sports so check your dealer first.

Failing that I think I have a spare 1mm over piston here but I'd have to double check I don't need it cause it's been so long since I played with the 125 I forget where I was up to  ::)

Doc your a champ thanks, but I have found a wiseco piston kit in the usa so as long as the guy is willing to ship to NZ all should be good. A friend called around today with a stuffed piston out of his RM125 and asked me if I could help him find one. I never seem to have much luck with suzuki parts (still looking for '83 RM500 engine cases) but a piston popped up in ebay so my friend left with a smile. ;D.
But thanks again for the offer.
