TECNIUM offers this piston ring set for SUZUKI RM 80, TS 80 ER, TS 80 X 1980-1987. Rings are thin steel bands sitting in the piston grooves. They press against the cylinder wall to hold compression and scrape oil.

The benefits:

• Regain compression and power.
• Reduce oil consumption and smoke.
• A cheap fix when piston and cylinder are still within spec.
