Vertex Pro-HC Forged High Compression Piston Kit 450cc

Elevate your engine's performance and durability with the Vertex Pro-HC Forged High Compression Piston Kit 450cc. Engineered for motorcycle enthusiasts and professionals, this kit delivers a significant boost in power and torque, ensuring your 4-stroke engine operates at its peak.

Description

The Vertex Pro-HC Forged High Compression Piston Kit is meticulously designed to transform your 450cc 4-stroke engine's output. Forged from premium 2618 aluminum alloy, this piston offers unparalleled strength and resilience, essential for the demands of high-performance riding. Its advanced 14.6:1 compression ratio is specifically engineered to improve power and torque across the entire RPM range, providing a noticeable performance advantage. Each piston undergoes a rigorous T-5 hardening and tempering cycle, further enhancing its durability and longevity. The skirt of the piston is treated with a high-tech Molybdenum Disulphite coating, which not only accelerates the break-in process but also significantly extends the piston's operational life by reducing friction and wear. This comprehensive 4-stroke motorcycle piston kit includes everything needed for a thorough engine rebuild: the precision-machined piston (96.96 mm diameter), high-quality rings (Cast, Steel, Nitride Coated), a robust wrist pin, and all necessary circlips, ensuring a perfect fit within a 97.00 mm cylinder.
