The Story
The Yamaha RD 350YPVS is a high-performance masterpiece that demands absolute precision. When your engine loses its crispness or compression, settling for anything less than Japanese-engineered hardware is a risk to your crank and cylinders. The TKRJ Piston Kit (0.50mm Oversize) is crafted to meet and exceed OEM specifications, providing the perfect balance of thermal stability and high-RPM durability for your liquid-cooled twin.
Why TKRJ is the Gold Standard for RD 350YPVS Rebuilds:
Authentic Japanese Engineering: TKRJ is world-renowned for manufacturing pistons that perfectly mirror the metallurgical properties and weight of original Yamaha factory parts.
0.50mm Oversize (2nd OS): This kit is the ideal choice for a "fresh" top-end rebuild. It allows a machinist to clean up minor cylinder wear or scoring while keeping the sleeve thick and maintaining plenty of "meat" for future rebores.
High-Silicon Aluminium Alloy: Engineered to withstand the extreme heat cycles of the YPVS engine. This advanced alloy resists "four-point seizing" and maintains its shape under the intense pressure of high-speed 2-stroke combustion.
Precision-Matched Ring Set: Includes premium Japanese rings designed to seat quickly against the cylinder walls, ensuring maximum compression and a clean, smoke-free (well, mostly!) burn.
Optimized Port Geometry: The piston skirt and crown are precision-machined to ensure perfect timing with the RD’s transfer and exhaust ports, maintaining the explosive mid-range power the YPVS is famous for.
