Hi. Following a catastrophic failure of a standard 125 piston,I am after a replacement.
I don’t want to upgrade to an expensive 52mm piston, I just would welcome a recommendation of a replacement item and supplier. Borgo? Meteor? I would like a 2mm or even 1.5mm rings.
Who keeps stock of original-size pistons?

Thanks guys.
I am still in the market if someone has a suitable piston in the back of a cupboard, but I will check out Scooter Resto and Totally Scooters.

I have just been handed a s/h Borgo 52mm piston, so I will see if this can be pressed into service.
Thanks for your suggestions and replies.
