I saw one of these on ebay tonight. Years ago, I saw these pistons listed in a few parts catalogs. What are they??? Are these the pistons used by Team Kawasaki when they sleeved down the Tecate's to run in the 200cc class?? I do not think so, it would take quite a chunk of iron to sleeve a 250cc cylinder down to a 125cc!! Any Tecate Historians In The House??

I am with 3Tigers in saying that it is probably mis-labeled and is a KX125 piston. Back in the day Jackie Meadows had Factory support in the 125 class riding a KX125 powered Tecate. It was a pure KX125 motor and not a de-stroked and de-sleeved 250. The guys that ran the 200 class ran 250 motors that were normally re-sleeved to a smaller bore.
