• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

My '14 TE 300 is due for a top end. Looking at the OEM piston kits it shows two different sizes. My bike has about 125 hours on the original piston. Never been opened. Would the standard piston (smaller) be the one for the first top end? Thanks for any help.
 
My bike shop recommends the standard piston (A size) is up to 80 hours and use a B size after 80 hours.
So go with a B piston.
 
Thanks for the information. I will go with the OEM "B" piston and probably the OEM gasket kit. Thanks!
 
Measure it. Nobody on the internet can tell you which piston size you need until you open it up and check it. If you use good oil and have good maintenance practices (clean the air filter after every ride) you're likely to be good to go with the A-size piston. Mine at 100 hours had no reason to be changed, but I had it open to check it so I freshed it up anyway.
 
How did you go? I'm interested to see how much your cylinder had worn after 125 hours.
