Hi,

   I have taken these dimensions from a New 72.5mm Italkit Piston.

The exhaust side is 65mm and the Inlet side is 61.5mm

These are measured from the bottom of the Skirt to the outer edge of the piston crown.

Hope these are of help to you.

thank you very much, is it good for a bultaco 198A? I heard that on some remanufacturing the dimension is not good is that it is necessary to machine the eyebolt.

I have never had any issues with remanufactured pistons as long as they are good quality. Italkit pistons are very good.

Hi -

I've just measured a new Mahle (Bultaco OEM)  piston.  Dimensions the same as those quoted by Old Gezzer.

I expect you know that standard bore of 198A is 71mm.?

Not sure if it is like the 350 piston, but I noticed there are no holes in the piston of the italkit, pretty sure it needs those to run right?
