wisecoooooooooo all the way

but make sure your cylinders are true and dont need to be replated or anything.

in other words you need access to a machine shop that can check these things out for you.

I put a set of wisecos in mine last fall, the rest of the motor is stock and it ran great--I would recommend spending the money to get caged bearings to go with them, installing the cageless would have been a major PITA!

All I know bout the domes is that they are for above 10,000ft. can you even get the pistons from Rktek? They don't even show the option for ordering pistons on the site

Just call Kelsey. He is pretty busy, so you may need to call a few times or leave a message. 208-852-3221

I am sure you can just get a set of dual ring pistons from him...

Good things with the RKT drop in kit. Do get the caged bearings, they are a lifesaver. DO NOT get Wiseco. I had several pairs and always ended up ordering OEM and replacing the Wisecos. Had probs with Wiseco in the dirt bike and ATV.
