Athena offers a wide range of cylinder kits for scooters and motorcycles with diameters and portings completely re-designed as original spare parts and / or specific boost to be used on tracks. In particular, racing kits consist of lighter pistons with a flat head, special portings, exhaust bridge, and a new cylinder head designed to increase the compression ratio and improve internal combustion. For some models Athena also supplies special long stroke racing kits complete with crankshafts and reinforced connecting rods.
