I need some info on a first over set piston ring combo for my 1986
KL600. The Kawasaki site is non descript for first or second over. I
find part numbers, but don't know what is what. Does any one know a
good aftermarket supplier for a piston ring kit, Wiseco, anywho? I want
this back together , I want to ride.

Look at the KLR650 pistons and compare
the info. to the KLR600 pistons and I
think this is the answer(verify before using):
Piston/Rings
STD, 13001-1211/13008-5067
L, O/S, 0.50(mm) 13029-1141/13025-1082
LL, O/S, 1.00(mm) 13027-1136/13024-1073
ronayers prices; pistons $92.13, rings $45.95

Thanks for the info Fred, can any one else verify these numbers as
being correct for first and second over before I place an order?
Thanks, Wayne

I agree with Ed. I have a 29" inseam. The height took some getting
used to, but now it feels natural. I can't put both feet on the
ground, but it doesn't bother me at all.
