Piston gets lighter ... more Power!!!!

[BaBarossa]

I've tried to do some work at my piston ... and the result was amazing, more power and more top end speed! From 115 to 122 KM/h! First I had a nearly stock Woessner Piston in my DT200R engine. But it's a very heavy part (238 gramm). So I did the best I could do : I made the piston lighter till 190 gramm.

Here are some pics:

Man, your lucky. That motor is almost impossible to get your hands on here in the U.S. not to mention stock it already has twice the power of a stock blaster (32hp v.s. 15hp) and you have access to a mill to boot.

I'm not lucky! I had to ride 800 KM through Germany to France, because here in Germany is not one to get! I bougt the whole motorbike and sold the parts I couldn't need on ebay.

Switching the engine wasn't also as simple as writen by yammyyammyblaster, there were many nights work to do! And Yammy had a DT200 and I've a DT200R.

But it was the best thing I did with my BlasterI:I!

By the way, next week perhaps I go on a Dyno, then I'll know how much power I'll really haveB-).

Great post bro!
Do tell what area you took away from.
How long have you ran the modded piston?

Sorry, Paulie, but my english is to bad to describe it good:">.

Just look at the pics and surch the difference. It was lightened by EDM.

I understand.
Very interesting subject though.
Most +3 vito's crank installs go with a spacer plate.
I like your out of the box thinking B-)
