If a piston is listed as "piston set" does it include the rings etc ?
this is in referance to genuine Kat1100 pistons.

As I understand it - yes. But it's always good to have the seller confirm that.

They're from CMS, it says see the schematic but the picture for the pistons isn't show, there's no email address and it would cost alot to phone Holland.

cost of a call can't be much to what you're paying for a set of pistons m8.... and you'll know whats you're paying for then. wouldn't give it a second thought personally :-/

Phoned Robinsons and they said it is piston and rings which is good news :)

Didn't want to phone cms as they clearly state the can give no technical advise, put may still try just for extra confirmation.

As you obviously realise CMS only list std and +0.5 rings mate so be careful about the +1's (which is what I assume we're talking about).
+1's are no longer available cos all you bloody proddy racers nicked 'em!!! ;) :D :D

73mm rings are available for other makes and models is there any way of checking their suitability for kat pistons? Would Rupperton know?
