Just wondered if anyone has used this spares supplier from Japan, cruzinimage_uk
I have just bought a set of piston rings for my 400/4 for under £40, they arrived in just over a week and look good quality but haven't fitted them yet.
They also have camchains and carb refurb kits at reasonable prices. This is not plug for them but just wondered if I have had a good deal. :-\

You'll find mixed reviews on here but before someone "blows you out of the water" i have used
their pistons and rings and the guy who rebored/skimmed my 750 said he considered them to be of good quality.
3 pistons were exactly the same and one was 30 microns smaller so he bored to suit.
Rubber parts seem to be a different story though.

I have always found their carb kits fine and have used quite a few, including on my CB400/4. But, as Rich says, other forum members may, no will, tell you different.

I was only pointing out that other forum members, (and I will not mention any names) seem to have a genuine dislike of their rubber bits and that those forum members will pipe up sometime with their own opinion. And, your no dog Ash ;D ;D ;DI have always found their carb kits fine and have used quite a few, including on my CB400/4. But, as Rich says, other forum members may, no will, tell you different.

I fancy one of those 836 big bore kits, it’ll more than double the size of my engine.I think Trigger has already tried that. These pistons would have made this 750 engine 2600cc....... ;D ;D ;D

Well spotted John. Graham did wonder if anyone would spot they came from a Diesel. He's still hopeful that one day, with a bit of engineering, he will be able to make them fit ;D ;D ;DI fancy one of those 836 big bore kits, it’ll more than double the size of my engine.I think Trigger has already tried that.

The piston stands still and the tractor goes up and down.
