650 rings....

Post by sparki » Tue Apr 22, 2014 5:01 pm

well, i suppose this is the same for any motor but... need some advice re replacing rings in the lil 650.

have a set here... no instructions in them. i understand the spacing etc and the oil rings/expander are no issue. the other two have markings on one surface so i'm presuming this is the upper surface?....

but... which of the other two is which. one feels as though its outer edges are a lot sharper than the other so i'm guessing this is the upper compression ring? the other feels a lot more "rounded" if that makes sense so is this the scaper?

any pointers appreciated :)
