Yamaha OEM pistons are ART brand and are marked as such on the inside of the skirt.
ART IS a Yamaha subsidiary.

I could feel mine was not going to take the torque recommended in the manual, before anything bad happened, so I seem to have gotten by using plenty of blue locktite. Threads or material, don't know what was the problem. Threads looked alright and holes were at the right angle, unlike some pictures.

Other than money, what is the benefit of Cruzin Image pistons over continuing with the original pistons and new rings?
Sorry. Assuming the cylinders are not requiring any bore change.
Well, if your originals are still good and in spec, I don't really see any benefit to getting new ones. Cruzinimage doesn't even sell 1st oversize pistons. 1st oversize only being 1/4 of a MM, many times that's not enough to clean up the damage or wear in used cylinders. You end up skipping up the the 2nd oversize (.50 or 1/2 MM).
