Piston Ring OrderPiston Ring OrderI was curious as to the order of piston rings. I found this photo below, but I just wanted to check with you guys to make sure that it's correct. Just because someone put a picture of it on the internet, doesn't always mean it's right ; )
The bottom ring is obvious, but the top two on mine were indiscernibly different. New set looks just like what's in the photo. Thanks in advance. P.S. I tried to search the forums in advance, I couldn't find anything. Current restoration: 1962 CB77

Re: Piston Ring OrderIt appears my rings don't have any numbers on them whatsoever. They're NOS honda rings too. Oh well.
Davo, thanks, saw reference to that in Bill Silver's manual. Always appreciate the reminders.
