sheerider11 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hot rods. I've seen wiseco explode at idle on kx250s Don't know how they do in the banshee, but not a chance I'm willing to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salmon_slayer06 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Hot rods.... pro its cheap.... con its made in taiwan. I have roughly 15 hours on a stroker I installed last summer. Don't know how much of a gain I got with that cause I had my stock cylinders ported by Farm and Sand Toys. I assume any gain was from that. But at least I have a new crank now...

trickedcarbine Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Not Weisco ! HotRods splitting from Weisco is the best move they made. Weisco makes good pistons though. They should just stick with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 even their banshee pistons are getting cheaply made now they lack gas rings and are heavier than the older ones. i say keep your retarded sack and give us back the better quality wiseco cranks are ok. their baskets are OK BUT you HAVE to do a rear bolt, cusion update to them i have never seen such a shit design on the attaching screwes from them. i sill prefer a hotrods fully welded, with big bearings. wiseco did have a few recalls on the china import cranks they were running in a bunch of dirt bikes. the taiwan manu or the japan manu for cranks is fine. ( pro cross rods are japan made as is ART pistons ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzodesign Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Wiseco pistons are mainly made in Taiwan, as is most all hot-rod and Wiseco cranks, art pistons are made in Taiwan as well Edited April 23, 2014 by gonzodesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I had a wiseco basket in a motor I bought once. It had that cheap backing plate/cushions set your talking about Cam. It finally let go and took some stuff out with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
