What is the benefit of a forged piston over a cast piston?

Forged pistons are made by shaping aluminum under extreme pressure, which creates a denser, stronger grain structure. This makes them more resistant to heat and stress, making them a better choice for high-performance engines or those with increased compression ratios.

What does a 13.5 to 1 compression ratio mean for my engine?

A higher compression ratio like 13.5 to 1 means the air-fuel mixture is squeezed more tightly in the cylinder before ignition. This generally leads to more efficient combustion and a noticeable increase in power and throttle response.

Can this piston be shipped to California?

No, this piston is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.

Product Details

JE Pistons is well-known for making strong internal engine components, and this forged piston for your Honda M/C CRF 450 is a prime example. If you're looking to rebuild or upgrade your engine for improved performance, this piston is built to handle the demands of a higher compression ratio. It's designed to replace the stock piston and increase your engine's compression to 13.5 to 1, which generally means more power when you get on the throttle.

This piston is forged from high-grade aluminum, a process that makes it incredibly strong and durable. Forged pistons are a popular choice for performance builds because they can withstand higher cylinder pressures and temperatures compared to cast pistons. This particular piston is a single unit, meaning you'll get one piston, ready for installation. It's a direct replacement part, so it should fit right into your 2017 Honda CRF 450 engine.

Keep in mind that this piston is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and assembly procedures.
