airfruit Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 I'm curious roughly how long before a piston and ring replacement is necessary on a 125. I have a 2008 beta rev3 125 and been riding it for 10 months now. The bike usually gets the crap rev'ed out of it. I'm a full size "adult". I know some dirt bikes has insanely short piston/ring replacement cycle so...? Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of these things last a long time if you keep clean air filters and such. May last years! The compression and rattle would be the points to monitor, as often a ring set will freshen them up.
