New to scooters, but old to riding anything with a motor that been modded. Had a gyro now sitting in the shed for three years that half * runs. When it wants to that is. So I started palying with and found the compression was weak. Searched the webb for weeks and found my way here. Really need a piston and rings to bore this thing jsut so it will run again. The crazy mods can come later. So who can hook me up?

Greetings Papa Pete... :hi:
Start your quest for Gyro piston/parts by posting your own thread instead of tagging on the tail of this one...you will have better help that way. You will want to get advice from mousewheels and/or tazland001 with this gyro topend build. "taz", as we call him, may have a 44mm piston set-up that will do you well for this job. What you need will depend somewhat on the condition of your cylinder. Get it apart, take some pix, and post your findings for us to see. Some day I will need to copy your build as I have 3 gyros as well. Welcome to the board sir, and I hope it serves you well... :thumbwink:

Can't one of the Aero 50 pistons be used as a stock high compression replacement?

Only MySpree knows what he did, and may someday tell. A GoPed pipe pipe experiment in MS Paint has some resemblance.
