Has anyone had problems with Cruisin Image pistons and rings? I installed 2nd O/S (.50) piston and rings in my 79 XS650SF about 2500 miles ago. From the beginning as more miles accumulated the oil consumption got worse. Now the engine burnes oil excessively. There's some hit and miss stories on line, I was told by one repair shop guy he "Heard' the rings don't last, however he has no personal experience. Does anyone out there have experience with this brand of parts? I may try to find OEM Yamaha piston and rings.
