That's quite a large compression jump isn't it? Stock is 9.5:1

I think you can use the pistons from other AUDM DOHC D-series engines - maybe see if Bisimoto has something for sale

its 9.5 or 9.6...i think 9.6 for the Vti

Bisi will have everything you need :)

redbook and wiki say 9.3 for the y1. either way, that is still a big jump

Honda says its 9.2. But yes its a pretty big jump. VEi actually has a higher comp rate (9.3) surprisingly
