FULL DESCRIPTION
Athena Forged Piston Kit - 96mm Bore
Enhance your motorcycle's performance and reliability with this premium Athena Forged Piston Kit. Engineered with cutting-edge technology and high-quality materials, this kit is designed to meet or exceed original equipment standards.
Athena pistons are crafted using advanced CNC machining for exceptional dimensional accuracy, with tolerances under 0.01 mm. They are constructed from a specialized high-performance aluminum alloy rich in silicon, ensuring both durability and superior performance. The precisely engineered piston profile promotes smooth airflow and optimal flame propagation for consistent power delivery.
For reduced friction and increased longevity, some piston skirts feature a molybdenum disulfide coating applied through screen printing. This advanced treatment further boosts performance and extends the life of your engine.
Each piston kit is meticulously engineered and tested by Athena's R&D department in Italy. Rigorous testing on engine dynamometers and on the track validates their performance in the most demanding conditions. The included piston rings, manufactured in Japan with wear-resistant coatings like PVD or chromium nitride, further reduce friction and enhance durability, adapting perfectly to the cylinder liner even under light loads.
This comprehensive kit includes the piston, pin, circlips, and piston rings, all of which are replaceable and interchangeable for convenience. This piston is specifically designed for use with Athena and original equipment cylinders.
