PIston source for a 123

Featured Replies

A friend has asked me to post this

I would like to get a new piston and/or rings for my Montesa 123. It seems they are like rocking horse ****. Only one I found was on a French classic trial website and was a whopping 177 euros.

Does anyone know where to find a piston/rings for a 1973 Montesa Cota 123, 54 mm bore size. First choice would be a 1st oversize piston and rings, second choice a Std piston and rings or third choice a set of std rings. Does anyone know of a piston or rings from another make of engine that will fit or can be modified to fit? The gudgeon pin is 14 mm.

Any help,would be appreciated

Tony, I would think the piston is the least of your mates problems. Tyres for the 123 are a major hassle. 20" and a 17" I think. Very rare now.

I have a mate in Cape Town who did up a 123 whether he sourced a piston I don't know. I'll try and dig up his e-mail addy for you.
