Newly developed 2-piece piston realizes increased stroke and connecting rod length while maintaining block height.
Dedicated full counter crank
Dedicated I-beam connecting rod with 36% higher buckling strength and 6mm longer shaft distance
Machined 2-piece piston
By making the piston two pieces and raising the pin position, it became possible to reduce the compression height. This made it possible to lengthen the connecting rod and increase the length of the rod without increasing the deck.
In addition, the piston is super lightweight at 313g and has a cooling channel for oil cooling.
