How hard did you look?

Piston Ring Set x 1

Make: Honda VFR400R (NC30 Grey)
Product#: 13011MV4305


Put that part number into davidsilverspares.co.uk and you'll find that

DSS sell them for 19.95 plus VAT (5+ in stock)

Thats about 80 quid plus vat for all pistons.

Not bad considering the Honda RRP is 35+vat per set.

The MV4 code is for the CBR400RRL-R Gull-Arm (NC29) so the rings for that will probably be the same part number

Ah cheers Neo

Would have helped if Id had the right part number. I was using 13011-MR8-000 Which I found on the PDF on the main site, Probably why I couldnt find anything! Will get them ordered up as a decent price :)

Any idea about the quality of the engine gasket set?

Yer I noticed that as never got round to ordering some as they seemed all good, Im surprised at that hike in price though.
