    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Where to buy piston rings?

NO! :eek:

There is no mention whether those rings are for an 1100E or an 1100G (they are different sizes), but it DOES say THEY ARE FOR SECOND OVERSIZE.

.
You are correct on the first over, however both E & G models are 72mm bore and use the same rings. #12140-49270
 
Piston Rings

Piston Rings

I'm looking for the exact same thing as I am planning on doing a simple hone and then replace the rings provided everything measures out ok first.

Bike Bandit sells OEM ring kits for ~$35 each Seems kind of expensive anybody know a cheaper source?

How do I know which kit to buy as they offer two different sets?

Thanks

Look at anybody else's parts fiche besides Bike Bandit, you will see that they offer STD and .050 sets.
You want the STD set, which is part number 12140-49270, which is superceded from 12140-49220.
