Product Description

The MotoSport.com Wiseco Pro-Lite Piston Kit - 2-Stroke includes one of each of the following components with the following attributes:

The Wiseco Piston Kit is not just a basic piston replacement, it is a performance piston kit that is more durable than O.E.M. pistons and includes everything necessary to rebuild your top end.

Wiseco Pro-Lite Piston:

Important note: This piston is for a stock sized bore. Please measure your cylinder to check clearance before ordering.

Wiseco leads the performance aftermarket by producing the highest quality forged pistons in the U.S.A. Wiseco is unique because they forge all of their own pistons in-house, and produce all of their own forge tooling in the U.S.A. This allows Wiseco to control all aspects of their manufacturing process from raw bar to skirt coating on the finished parts.

Wiseco Pro-Lite motorcycle pistons are forged using the highest quality materials available resulting in a piston that provides excellent performance and durability. The Wiseco Pro-Lite piston features a race-ready dome finish with smooth edges for improved combustion flow. The rings, wrist pin, and circlips are manufactured by Wiseco under their strict quality standards to make sure every piston kit fits correctly, ensuring top performance is achieved.

Pro-Lite Piston features:

  • Much stronger than stock.
  • Tight tolerances for quiet running.
  • More hours with peak performance between piston changes.
  • All Pro-Lite pistons include rings, wrist pin and circlips.

Extreme racing conditions demand the strength and toughness that only forged pistons can offer. Compared to cast pistons, forgings are tougher and more durable, and will stand up to the abuse that high performance motorsport applications require. Most castings are brittle, have no grain structure and tend to fail catastrophically when the material yield strength is exceeded. Forgings have condensed grain that is aligned to the features of the part, which produces higher mechanical properties, and resistance to impact and fatigue. Each forging is designed to optimize the strength-to-weight ratio, and maximize performance.

Wiseco Needle Bearing:

The Wiseco Needle Bearing is a high quality replacement wrist pin bearing designed to withstand the harsh demands of racing. Wiseco built their needle bearing to meet or exceed O.E.M. specifications.

Cometic Top End Gasket Kit:

State-of-the-art gaskets is what Cometic has been doing since its inception in 1989. This comes from their dedication to constructing gaskets for the most demanding race circuits like AMA and NASCAR. Today's lightweight engines are producing more horsepower, higher cylinder pressure, clamp load and extreme temperatures. Cometic's commitment is to provide innovative, quality gaskets while maximizing your engine's power and performance.

Cometic meets the needs of each specific gasket by using materials to match. Even the basic top end gasket kit features different materials for each gasket. The head gasket is constructed from non-asbestos, flexible graphite that is laminated to a stainless steel core. The manifold and base gaskets are constructed from non-asbestos nitride rubber-bound fiber. Cometic also includes copper gaskets where needed.

Cometic designs and builds their gaskets in the U.S.A.

Wiseco piston kit
I recently bought this kit for my Rm 125 that was overdue for a top end. Everything seemed to be going great until i got the fresh piston on and i realized that Wiseco didn't supply me with any rings! i was angry but Motorsport did a job handling the situation and got it to me in 1 day. I have the piston in now and it works great! Thanks motosport

Wiseco Top-End
First of all, the folks at Motosport.com are a great help, and second, this top end kit had everything I needed and was a snap to install. My bike revs faster over the stock piston. Install was easy and everything fit like a dream. Fired up on the second kick.

Great OE Replacement
Used during a recent top end rebuild on my 2002 YZ250. Everything you need to do the entire top end. Pretty straightforward and solid product. I can vouch for the fit/finish and performance. This is my first Wiseco kit (replacing an OE piston) so we will see how durability plays out. First impressions are great! Would buy again, especially at Motosports great prices!!

You'll need to check out the OEM Parts Diagrams under the cruiser page on our website. Your replacement parts for the 1985 Yamaha Virago 700 will be located there. http://www.motosport.com/cruiser/oem-parts/YAMAHA/1985/VIRAGO-700-_-XV700/CRANKSHAFT-PISTON

Will a 06 yz250f piston ring fit a 03 yz250 2stroke and run normal?
29 days ago Location: Portland, OR, USA
No, it won't. The pistons are completely different.
MotoSport Staff
28 days ago Location: Portland, OR, USA
No, this will not work at all. Everything about the two engines are completely different and parts (including piston rings) will not interchange.

I have a 1988 cr125. What size piston should I order since there are three choices.?
1 month 19 days ago Location: Portland, OR, USA
You need to look on the cylinder or the cerial number to determine what size you have. Then order the corresponding piston.
MotoSport Staff
1 month 17 days ago Location: Portland, OR, USA
Different piston sizes are offered because cylinder boring is common for engine repair to take out scratches or defects in the cylinder wall. When bored out, you need a larger piston since the cylinder is larger. Take apart the top end and measure the piston with a micrometer. If your cylinder is in good shape you can replace the piston with the same size. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Should i put this in my bike?
Ive had a lot of problems with my kx 125. it bogs a lot at low rpms and has to run a plug with a huge diode. I finally got the courage to run a compression check last night and it ran about 125 psi. other notes- pro circuit pipe and powercore 2 silencer. main jet-420 pilot jet- havent seen but probably stock. am i missing something?
MotoSport Staff Expert
Over 3 years ago
i dont think a piston is going to solve your problem. it sounds like you have a air/fuel mixture problem to me. and make sure your running the correct plug that will make a huge difference As well
2 years 9 months ago Location: St. Louis, MI
Have u tried cleaning out your power valves? I have a kx 125 with the same problem and that helped a lot

How many rings?
I've been running a single ring Wiseco piston in my 2002 CR125, but I forget if it is a pro lite or not. I would like to stick with the single ring and would like to know if the pro lite is a single for the CR125. Thanks!
Over 3 years ago
125 2 strokes are single ring pistons where 250 2 strokes and majority of all 4 strokes are dual ring. But the pro-lite is a single ring.

I have a 03 kx 250 do u have to replate the cylinder everytime you do a rebuild?
Expert MotoSport Staff
2 years 12 months ago Location: Portland
You would only need to replace the cylinder if the cylinder walls are scared beyond repair. If you are unsure of the condition of your cylinder take it to your local mechanic.
2 years 11 months ago Location: bullard, texas
No, but keep a good eye one the jug for grooves or markings inside the jug...
X07yz250riderX Over 3 years ago Location: California

MotoSport Staff Expert
2 years 12 months ago Location: Portland
This piston matches the shape of the OEM piston. It will not increase or decrease compression.
1 month 28 days ago Location: Portland, OR, USA
I just put this top end on my 04 CR and It has a dome.
