Yes , bought it second hand, cylinder looks good condition

is the cylinder of those steel lined with an alloy jacket?

I think HxPaul was suggesting that AF was the best place to get one to match their kit.

Ah righto.

Seen 2 pistons - a 3 ring casa and a 2 ring mahle - any differencesuggestions?

Cheers

are they conversion pistons or std 175 pistons?

The Mahle is conversion

you will need a conversion piston as a std 175 has a different length con rod

I will order the Mahle.

if it was a second hand cylinder what makes you think it's an Af one?

I bought it as advertised, like I said it looks well made, but you never know eh.

just a thought look at the 175 piston then look at your 150 piston is the hole for the gudgon pin the same distance from the crown also is the cylinder iron liner with an alloy jacket?

I will have a look asap.
It is an iron with alloy jacket.

sounds like a scoot rs one they take a fair bit of fetling to get working correctly I've taken hours setting the port timing on them you may be better getting the new piston then going to Hammonds on Dock road in Connahs Quay and get you 150 opened out to suit

Thanks mate, that sounds like a plan!
