that reminds me of a joke...
 
A man is standing on the side of the freeway looking under the bonnet of his broken down car. A drunk stumbles past and asks
"whats wrong.?"
"Piston broke" the man answers
'hickup' ..."me too"  came the reply...

More on pistons:
 
Contacted by Australian Precision Engine Parts through a mate who knew I was trying to be the Mahle-boro man (shit I am full of it today) and they reckon that they can build us forged slugs, to our specs, for $200 plus GST each.  Pins & clips are extra but that won't be much.
 
Whilst more expensive than the Mahles, which we can't get at this stage anyway, this may be the way to go.  Especially considering the piston is being made to your blueprint spec and no further machining is required, as would be the case with the Yamaha pistons.
 
If anyone has $800+ to spend so we can test the theory, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or Australian Precision Engine Parts at 5 Sherwood Crt Wantirna South Vic 03 9887 1299.
 
I am in no way pushing their product etc etc but I am interested to know the quality of their work.
 
If anyone else has had any dealings with this mob please let me know.  If ya really wanna test them ask for square pistons nyuk nyuk nyuk.
 
Regards
Brad
