What's the diameter of a 65cc jug?.....Wossner only lists oversized pistons for the KX60 up to a 45mm bore....which turns out to be 63cc.

same with Wiseco...

might have to go with a cast piston...if you haven't already looked into that option.

I thought I read somewhere that the kx65 cylinder is a direct bolt up to the kx60???
I could be all washed up because I'd be more likely to pay attention to a kx650  :-o
I bet GREENKAW24 would know...
