Hi,
my current piston popped a circlip and has knackered the piston and liner. I'm trying to find a replacement one, or one that can be modified to fit without too much work. would a higher compresion piston be ok? Also need a new liner 81.8mm bore.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks
Richard

Have you tried Draganfly? I believe they stock a few Ariel parts.

AOMCC has new 7.5:1 pistons available for Club members.
(I've got the impression that a lot of the trials guys aren't too keen on low/standard compression pistons for their HTs these days.)
