where is the best place to buy CP pistons for the 700 ?

Daniel @ HDD or Nate @ Alba has them in stock. You also need a base and head gasket:tup:

I usually have them also

you guys that are running the cp 11:1 are you getting the anti friction coating on them or does it matter. the stock piston comes with a coating i think?:xx:

 

[jfdanie2]

I didnt even know that was an option. Im pretty sure mine doesnot have the coating.

These are your standard "off the shelf" pistons cp sells for the 700xx.

The are not anti-friction coated/ Nikasil pistons. The oem Aluminum cyclinder has a steel sleeve, so no need for the pistons to be Nikasil coated IMO. You can have them custom ordered through CP, if you order 3 pistons.

thanks for the info in never heard of a piston being nikasil coated , i have heard of ceramic coated piston on the thumper racing ktm 600cc in dirt wheels this month and some kind of teflon coating for friction from cp. i think cylinder works kits have a nikasil sleeve or coating on there cylinders, if the cylinder is nikasil can they be bored out?:xx:

Sorry maybe i should have said the pistons don't come anti-friction coated unless you special order them. If you bore out a nikasil sleeve cylinder you MUST get it nikasil coated again.

You don't have to worry about any of this with the XX :tup: Also use the OEM head and base gaskets for the stock bore Pistons , not the MLS gaskets.

I bought my 11.5;1 CP from EHS racing. You can still run pump gas on this one.

CP doesn't make a 11.5:1 piston for the XX? Did he have CP custom make one just for you? They would be Special order and you must buy 3 or more of them:tup:

Here is the "off the shelf pistons" CP offers.
