Of vids and research Ive done on these kit of like last vid I just watched from Bikeman Performance. Why is the length and support of the piston only added above the wrist pin and the skirt length not lower skirt not lengthened or modified?
Wouldn't that make the piston skirt drop farther down into the case and have more of the side of the piston and skirt exposed since the spacer is added and the cylinder skirt is raised? or would if the bottom of skirt was lengthed would it come in contact with the crank not sure how close the stock pistons would be to the crank in this area.
The cyl skirt raised would seem to add more fuel into the case and add hp but is it really worth it or should a guy just add Better than stock crappy piston and put in better cast or forged? I not a fan of the finikyness of the forged piston I currently have the topend of my sled ready to go back together and I for the rest of the season ordered SPI moly stock replacement pistons, but in off season debating whether a Fix Kit is worth it or just Put in a pet of RKtek direct replacement pistons. Kelsey and I had a fallen out along time ago on another deal that was slowly resolved, but I not a grudge holder and that doesn't take away from the fact that he does seem to make a pretty impressive product.
buddy has the 858 kit and that's a monster. I cant afford one of those just Id rather reliability and some smaller sensible mods to my engine and focus on the more expense in making the handleing, flickability and comfort of the sled.
Thanks, Wildcard
