Wossner 8216DA Premium Forged 2-Stroke Piston Kit - Standard Size A
Maintain the legendary "hit" of your Yamaha 2-stroke with the Wossner 8216DA Piston Kit. Specifically engineered for the Yamaha YZ250 and the woods-focused YZ250X, this Standard Size A forged kit is the professional choice for restoring Factory Quality power and reliability. At Moto-House MX, we know that the YZ250 engine is one of the most versatile platforms in motocross history, and Wossner’s aerospace-grade components ensure it stays at peak performance on the track or the trail.
Forged from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, this piston provides superior structural integrity and thermal resistance compared to standard cast pistons. The 8216DA features a permanent skirt coating to reduce internal friction and piston rock, resulting in a quieter engine and smoother throttle response. With optimized machining for lightness and reinforced strength in the crown, this dual-ring piston is built to handle the intense heat and mechanical stress of competitive 250cc racing.

Expert Pro-Tip: The Yamaha YZ250 engine has remained a favorite for decades due to its reliability and broad powerband. When installing the 8216DA, always check your cylinder for any signs of glazing or wear in the Nikasil plating. Replacing your small-end wrist pin bearing and using a fresh top-end gasket kit during installation is essential for maintaining the high-RPM reliability Yamaha owners expect.
