11:1 piston needed

Post by smotorboy »

Hello everyone,
I am in need of a standard useable 350 11:1 piston for the Red Baron race-bike.

I am willing to pay over the standard Price rate to cover the extra shipping hassle to the states...

Hermy has oversize NOS sport pistons. IN the USA and at a good price

And if you really want standard size then Mdina in the UK are listing them:

Very little of what Herdan lists on their website is actually available.

Thank you Tom for the reference,
I will look into the new pistons for sure....

I’m not opposed to a serviceable used piston as they have been thermocycled hundreds Or even thousands of times and usually are more “stable” and therefore less prone to scuffing and seizing than new “green” pistons....

My race-bike is not able to do long Gentle break-in runs and this could be an issue if these new pistons are not extremely stable right out of the box.....

I need to check the spare pistons I have from customer Mark's three engine rebuilds, but may have what you need. Will have a look tomorrow and let you know.
