Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use different brands of rings with my new Wiseco piston?
A: No, Wiseco pistons must be fitted specifically with Wiseco rings. Using unauthorized rings can result in incorrect ring end gap, poor sealing, and potential engine failure.

Q: Does this kit include the cylinder sleeve?
A: No, this kit includes the piston, rings, and gasket set. If your cylinder sleeve is damaged or worn beyond service limits, it must be addressed separately by re-plating or re-sleeving the cylinder.

Expert Pro-Tip: Always check your ring end gap by placing the ring inside your cylinder and using a feeler gauge before final assembly. A gap that is too tight can cause the ring to seize when the engine hits operating temperature. Additionally, always clean your power valve assembly while the top end is off; carbon buildup there is the #1 hidden performance robber on these YZ125s.
