Is there a circlip crossover?

[Terrence R]

Just took my top end off to put in a thicker base gasket. I ordered a new set of rings for the wossner piston I have in it and a top end gasket kit. I only put 20 hrs on it since I rebuilt it last. I use motul 800 and I'm more than very pleased with how everything looks inside. The piston looks the exact same as when I put it in. All the black coating is still there and the crown is so clean. Everything came apart very well lubed. The dome of the head has a nice moist looking gold film from clean burning carbon.

So, I took a circlip off to check the piston for any cracks and to check the upper part of the rod, etc. I bent the circlip badly on removal and need to replace it. I know that it should be replace regardless as they aren't re usable. Is there any sort of crossover for these circlips?

99% sure any of the late 2 stroke Honda 250 circlips will work.

I wanna say all the modern day 2 stroke circlips are the same.

Invest in one of these NOW.

Eight dollars fifty? I could order a beer for that. And not one of your beers but a fancy craft beer that would make you say hello to life.

Are you looking at the V Block price? The kit is $43.50 for the two stroke; still cheaper than my time spent filing gouges or hunting along the floor (or in the case) for an errant clip.

Or pulling one out of your eye.......

Also, some circlips are real bastards, such as those used on Skidoo snowmobiles..

Gee, I'm not sure what I was looking at but that would buy a case of craft beer.
