KTM/Husqvarna piston kit from Meteor Piston Italy. Meteor's range of forged hi-perforamnce pistons provide the ultimate combination of strength and durability, making the Meteor piston three time stronger than most genuine pistons. Thanks to Meteor Piston's more than 60 years of experience in designing and manufacturing top of the line hi-performance forged pistons and engine parts.

Meteors skirt shapes and profiles are very specific to each application. Variable cam programming software developed by Meteor Piston to produce high-performance shapes and design unique to only Meteor. Meteor’s true racers piston crown (Top) surface finish that reduces heat & stress, with smooth radius valve pockets minimising the effect of hot spots and detonation.This extends piston life and helps increase the engines power.

The skirt shape (barrel/cam) is one of the most functional areas on the piston, and provides stability and smooth operation in the cylinder bore. Stability is important for proper ring seal, reduced friction, and quiet operation. Each skirt shape is designed for a specific running clearance, based on coefficient of thermal expansion of the piston alloy. Each Meteor piston is designed with the proper installed clearance to produce the most power, least wear, and best seal at running temperature, for each application.

• Kit includes: forged piston, rings, pin & clips
• Compression 14.0:1
• Forged 3 times stronger than stock and aftermarket cast type pistons 
• Bridge-box bottom design for most models
• Meteor’s smooth radius finish piston crown, and aids stress relief, minimising the effect of hot spots and detonation and extends piston life
• Meteor forged piston run the same piston to bore clearance as genuine - Piston noise is low even at old start-up.
• Japanese piston rings (from the same manufacturers that supply to Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki)
• Meteor piston and rings can be used in all plated cylinders and cylinders fitted with a sleeve.
• Anti-detonation bands - Minimises crevice volume reducing the effects of unburned fuel between the piston and the bore
• Accumulator groove - Aids compression ring sealing under high cylinder pressures
• Precisely placed oil drain back holes
• Images are generic and may differ slightly to part supplied.
