Title: 100mm piston? Post by badwolf on 09/29/15 at 11:53:53 I'm new posting, been lurking since Jan. Has anyone noticed Suzuki's 650 on-off road single uses a 100mm piston? Has anyone tried it? Would put a Savage WELL over 700cc's, a really BIG SINGLE.

Post by Dave on 09/29/15 at 12:04:33 Sorry....won't work.  The 100mm piston is from the later DR650, it is just too big to fit into the barrel of the Savage.  The DR engine has a bigger barrel and stud spacing. The 95mm from the earlier DR650 does work....and even more better is to get that piston from Wiseco and get a jump in compression.  Since you are going to have to spend money on getting the cylinder bored - you are better off buying a Wiseco than you would be to install a stock DR650 piston (unless you had one laying around). 95mm results in 666.292cc 96mm results in 680.393cc 97mm results in 694.642cc Old post on the subject: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1349870784/0 http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1266928992/0
