RIBase
If you're really desperate you could always try Cosworth. They'll make pistons for almost anything but it's not cheap...

Get the piston sizes and have a leaf through the ads in Motorcycle News
there are a few smaller bike shops about that rebore 2 strokes and seem to have a huge list of pistons . There is one down the road from me who does it all and he finds pistons for some really obscure stuff .

Parts from Italy just sold an italian Bike for that reason

yes i need the pistons as it had scored very slightly on one pot and it was cheeper to buy 3 oversized pistons than just one plus rings, so im going to get all 3 rebored but they need the pistons before they start work on the barrel . ive been waiting a long time for them to come from italy ,if not here by christmas i will ask for my money back and either sell the rib or buy another engine , cheers any way
