Upgrade or rebuild your classic Honda motorcycle engine with this Standard Size (56 mm) Piston Kit — complete with piston, piston rings, piston pin, and piston pin clips (pair). This kit replaces OEM piston #13101‑323‑000, piston rings #13011‑323‑014 / 13011‑323‑013, clip #94601‑15000, and pins #13111‑440‑000 / 13111‑286‑000, providing all essential internal components to rebuild one piston. Because this kit rebuilds only one piston, 4 kits are needed to rebuild all pistons in a 4‑cylinder engine — please confirm before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many 56 mm piston kits are required for a 1971-1973 Honda CB500K?
One standard-size 56 mm piston, ring set, wrist pin and two pin clips are included. The CB500K four-cylinder engine requires four kits to replace all four pistons.
Can a standard-size CB500K piston be installed without measuring the cylinder?
No. Measure bore diameter, taper, out-of-round and piston-to-wall clearance. A worn or previously overbored cylinder may require machining and a correctly sized oversize piston instead.
What must be checked during piston installation?
Verify ring end gaps in the actual bore, ring orientation, piston direction and wrist-pin clip seating to the Honda manual. Keep each ring and piston matched to its measured cylinder.
