    Cruzin Image and/or Sumo Rubber experience?

    Just spoke to boring shop and weve agreed the Yamaha standard spec is probably best, especially with all the feedback from people here. He said he would've gone slightly overspec anyway so tighter spec plus a whisker is about standard :).

    I've just purchased a set of these pistons and need to know what piston to bore clearance was used, because the rebore man said the standard Yamaha tolerances sounded tight for cast pistons.
