    Who will admit to using a Shindy piston and whats your experience with them?

    As the title states,wondering whos had experience with Shindy.I dont want this to get into a debate over which is better.If you havent used a Shindy or dont know somebody who's used one,you dont need to comment,but of course I cant stop you.
    I've sent my head into G&H discount atv to get a valve job done,I see that they use Shindy pistons.So who knows about these?

    I posted a thread a while back about them, could do a search, but a lot of people had great things to say about them. Their website say they are made in Japan too.

    Used them quite a few times without any problems.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

    G&H also uses Wiseco pistons in some of thier kits(350x top end kit). I am sure you can ask for one.
