WOSSNER offers this piston kit for POLARIS OUTLAW 525, OUTLAW 525 IRC, OUTLAW 525 IRS, OUTLAW 525 RS 2X4, OUTLAW 525 S, KTM EXC 520, EXC 525, SX 520, SX 525, XC 525 and BETA RR 525 1999-2013. The piston slides in the cylinder and takes the force of the air-fuel combustion, passing it to the connecting rod and crankshaft.

Why choose a forged piston?

Instead of simply being cast, a forged piston is hot-pressed under very high pressure and then machined: its metal is denser and free of air pockets.

• Stronger when hot: it copes better with high revs, overheating and detonation.
• Lighter for the same strength: less stress on the connecting rod and bearings.
• Good to know: depending on the alloy, it expands a little more and is fitted with more clearance; slight noise when cold is normal.
• Why does it cost more? Forging tools, full machining and surface treatments cost more than simple casting.

Why choose WOSSNER?

Wössner has forged its own pistons since 1994: Molykote-coated skirt to reduce friction and ease running-in, kit supplied complete with rings, pin and clips.

When should you replace the piston?

Harder starting, loss of power, blue smoke, oil consumption or a knock when cold: these are the signs of a tired top end.

No manufacturer hour figure for this model. Cross-Mania guideline: compression check every 50 h in hard use and every 100 h for leisure.
