Description
Barikit piston Ø 47.6mm 12mm pin Minarelli.
Barikit from Spain produces spare and tuning parts for scooters and supermotos.
The piston with piston ring(s), piston pin and circlips is the moving heart of the cylinder. Due to the constant up and down movement, the piston is subject to wear. At some point the tolerances are no longer correct, the piston ring no longer seals perfectly and the performance decreases, i.e. the piston must be replaced.
Technical details:
- Tuning level: Racing
- Displacement: 70cc
- Bore: 47,6 mm
- Piston pin: 10 mm
When to replace the piston?
To find out when the piston on your motorcycle, scooter or moped needs to be replaced, it's best to check your bike's manual. You can also keep an eye out for certain symptoms such as loss of compression, loss of power or oil consumption (only for a four-stroke piston).
Extending Piston life
To extend the life of the piston and reduce cylinder wear, it is recommended that you replace the piston rings on an alternating basis. This method maximizes piston life and improves engine performance.
It is important that you replace cylinder gaskets and piston circlips each time you disassemble the cylinder and piston. Failure to do so can result in oil leaks and engine damage.
Tuning Level: Racing
We categorize our products into different performance levels Original, Sport, Racing and High End , so that our customers can choose the right parts for their setup. It is really important to combine parts that belong to the same tuning level, this is especially true for cylinders, crankshafts and exhausts.
Racing products are designed for a more extreme uses and are developed primarily for racing. Whether you stay at 50cc or increase the displacement, the corresponding Racing parts produce much higher performance than the original parts in order to achieve maximum power.
