The VERTEX Top End Piston Kit (Forged Replica) is built for riders who want a reliable, OEM-replacement-quality top-end refresh on a 4-stroke engine. Using a forged 2618 aluminum piston and a T-5 hardening/tempering cycle, this kit is designed to handle the heat and load of performance riding while maintaining consistent fit and durability.
To speed up bedding-in and help extend service life, the piston skirt is coated with high-tech molybdenum disulphite, reducing friction and wear during the critical break-in period. Because the kit includes the essential components for a top-end service—down to the gaskets and cam chain—it helps you complete the job correctly without chasing missing parts.
