2005 Factory replica!
It's a public holiday here in the UK on Monday. That gives me 3 solid days in the garage to Strip, clean and lube my bike. I have some interesting upgrades in the pipe line and big box of parts on their way from Spain! By next weekend my old 200 smoker will be as close to a factory replica as possible!
Watched this space for a before pic and a few after pics Just out of interest which make of piston is best?

Can't wait!
As for the piston, I've only used the OEM which I am pretty sure it is a Wiesco piston.

Wossner pistons seem ok. The top end kits - rings / l.end / piston are decent value, I used one when I rebuilt my '06 ec 200 and it runs great. Biketech will stock them for your bike.

However, my preference in pistons are those made by Wossner (Germany), who furnished the OEM pistons from 2004 through at least 2007. Wossner also makes the same piston sold by Athena, except that they have a non-stick coating on the outside of the piston. The same rings fit both Wossner and Athena pistons. For your bike: http://www.athenaparts.com/eng/model...gas-gas-ec-200 "A" Piston kit: http://www.athenaparts.com/eng/produ...on-kit-o-62-45 Complete Athena line for your bike: http://www.athenaparts.com/eng/model...gas-gas-ec-200 Athena USA was bringing them into the US. I spoke to a fellow last year, and bought some piston kits from him. Rich, Jr. RSB@wsmparts.com https://wsmparts.com/results.aspx?id...5_17_-1_225_-2 Good Riding and Wrenching, Jim
