Who is it for?

• You want to match the compression to the fuel, the terrain or a tuned engine.
• You're after a smoother or snappier engine without changing the cylinder.

Good to know

The insert is chosen to suit your engine and your fuel: a smaller chamber volume raises compression, which may call for a higher-octane fuel. Always check the squish when fitting.

Fitting tips

1. Clean the cylinder mating face without scratching it.
2. Fit new O-rings and grease them lightly so they stay in place.
3. Check the squish (gap between piston and head) with solder wire before riding.
4. Tighten the head in a criss-cross pattern, in several stages, to the recommended torque.
5. Fit a new spark plug and refill the coolant.
