    I've looked for listings of the 165 kit being available for sale as of Aug 2014. Older posts seem to indicate a person could buy piston/top end/power valve assembly and the appropriate pipe all at once. A core exchange would be required.

    1- where do I go to get a kit as of today?

    2- will this kit be available in 2015? 2016? etc?

    3- are the replacement pistons for a 165 rebuild wossners, some other brand? Are rebuild parts commonly available even if Wallybean is out of the kit business and have to be sourced elsewhere?

    thanks

    I am still going strong but it has been slow this summer(this is my hobby/read fun). The 165 kit can be purchased from Motosportz here on the café or if you prefer dealing with a Husky dealer either Bill's Motorcycles plus or Hall's cycles handle the kit too. Price is the same and all give great service.

    The special order Wossner pistons will be stocked by me well into the future and I have no plans to die anytime soon. If you want a stand alone kit the core charge is $350 which I will refund if you decide to not keep your 125 top end and send it in. Most riders send me there spare top end and then install the kit when they get it with no down time and no core charge. If you want me to use your parts exclusively the turn around time is 4-5 weeks typically but I am at the mercy of my vendors and welding sub.

    If I happen to bite the ultimate dirt sandwich, one of the above sources will certainly stock the piston kit. It isn't a proprietary piston but it isn't affordable unless you order at least 25.

    Thanks for the inquiry,
    Walt

    Good to hear WB. I wasn't sure if you'd carry the kits forward given the CR/WR125 isn't manufactured anymore (here is to crossing my fingers on the Gas Gas rumors of husky engined GG framed bikes).

    I sure hope they, GG, or somebody uses it and the 250/310 x-lite engines. I just hate to see GREAT stuff go by the wayside.

    Question on the expansion chamber for this motor. How does the stock pipe/fatty work vs ktm 200 pipe I see people use. Does the ktm pipe give more power everywhere on the curve or is it only in certain places? I'm assuming the kit doesn't come with a pipe?

    I sell both the 200 SX fatty and the 200 SX Dep pipes with this kit. The Fatty makes better bottom/mid and still rips on top but the top is capped a bit. The Dep makes good mid and great top. I have both those pipes converted to fit your particular bike.

    How much are the 200SX DEP pipe's Wal? Including freight to Australia?
    I've got the 165 finally running beautifully, after a shaky start, but was thinking I might try the DEP pipe for something different.
    God I love this bike :love:
