Vertex Motorcycle Engine Piston KAWASAKI KX 450 (KX450J) / KAWASAKI KX 450

By equipping the best teams in world MX, Vertex has taken advantage of the fabulous testing facilities that high-level competition offers to develop the new "Racer's choice" piston range. The attention to detail, aimed at improving the performance and reliability of already powerful engines, has been pushed to its limits.

• Design and shape of the dome optimized to improve the flame front and achieve the maximum acceptable compression ratio
• Surface treatment reducing friction
• Reinforcements stiffen the structure of the piston and minimize dome deformation under full load
• Short rod and chamfered with a DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coating
• External snap rings to prevent rotation at high RPM
• Ultra-thin segment ≪GNH≫ in gas-nitrided steel increases wear resistance
