    I find some thing funny in your part list ART piston with RIK rings ???? where is the ART rings in RIK piston !!

    you said you are happy with the performance, may i know how much is ur bike doing ?

    the reeds which you are using aint rd 350 reeds, it is boyesen reeds form proton racing chennai.

    its not to offend you but please dont pass misinformation by telling people that you have fitted malay rxz clutch if u have then you and your bike surely deserves a place in "ripleys believe it or not".. you simply cannnnnnnot do it.

      I appreciate your interest in my bike and your knowledge. But these are the things i.e parts informed to me by my mechanic. Frankly speaking i am a layman and not into much detailed information about modification. This is the first ever bike i got modified and i trust him as he has done a wonderfull job as you can see. My bike is doing a 130kmph, it shoots i can say. You are right about the reeds as i confirmed that they are Boyesen reeds. Will reconfirm about the malay rxz clutch as he says to have fitted on to my bike. I can post a pic of the ART piston assembly (Had clicked it while he was fitting it). Please do let me know if its genuine. And one last thing, i dont know about "ripleys believe it or not".. But i believe that my bike is "MY DREAM BIKE " and is running to my satisfactory level Thanks for your kind advice and comments!

            Coz ART pistons for the RX came in white yamaha packing with yamaha packed (ART) rings in it.

            ART doesnt sell as a retail brand it uses co brands like PRO-X or yamaha/suzuki factory pistons.


            EDIT :The packing as i can see in the image is sudco pistons



            and the piston at extreme right is the art PISTON
            BLACK, LITERALLY BLACK IN COLOR


            These are replica models and are copy of originals, they do the job, buttttttt not perform as originals.

                          Spec I meant was the bike's specification in terms of engine. What block piston, gearbox, any upgradation etc.

                              @bigbore - did he remove the original paint/coating? and if yes how? and how about taking care of nicks/scratches made on the covers?
