  5. the kawasaki stuff is normally easy to get old ktm i’ve just had to buy a second hand bottom end for a roller bearing can’t get it i just hope it’s ok when a split the cases lol piston had to be forged no sells a cast
  6. you will have tighter clearances with cast mate forged expand more so you will have more chance of damage piston slap when the engine is cold even if the owner is sensible and warms the engine before giving it any hammer i’d still choose cast my self mate but sometimes all you can get is forged just warm them up is all you can do
