CB350/400 / Piston Ring Query
« on: February 15, 2021, 09:01:57 PM »
Hi All
I received a few new sets of Standard Piston rings and was looking to determine their Orientation.
The top and 2nd ring have both got a Capital R which I assume is Riken. All OK
The challenge is which is the top ring and which is second. I have looked at all the guides and think the following
image 516 and 515 are of both rings with an R to be faced upwards
image 514 and 513 are the same ring from either side of the ring. I think this is top ring. It also looks lighter than the other ring...
Image 512 is the second ring I think but seems to have 90 degree sides.... IS That right..
Thanks
