FULL DESCRIPTION
Athena Forged Piston Kit B - 97mm Bore
Enhance the performance and durability of your motorcycle with the Athena Forged Piston Kit B. Crafted using advanced reverse extrusion and cutting-edge CNC machining, this piston ensures exceptional dimensional accuracy with tolerances of less than 0.01 mm. Made from a specialized high-performance aluminum alloy rich in silicon, it offers the reliability of original equipment (OE) pistons while delivering superior resistance and performance.
The piston features a perfectly smooth profile designed for optimized flow and efficient flame propagation. Some models include a molybdenum disulfide coating applied via screen printing to further reduce friction, boosting both performance and lifespan.
Athena engineers are dedicated to providing advanced technical solutions and the highest quality standards, meeting or exceeding OE production requirements for guaranteed performance and reliability. Each piston is meticulously engineered in Italy by the Athena R&D department and rigorously tested on engine dynamometer benches and on the track under extreme conditions.
This piston kit includes the piston, pin, circlips, and piston rings. All components are designed for replaceability and interchangeability. The included piston rings, produced in Japan with wear-resistant coatings (PVD or chromium nitride), minimize friction with the cylinder liner for higher performance and extended durability, adapting precisely even at low tangential loads.
