    Well, I ran into a HUGE snag on my situation with my 1983 GS300L D model.
    Ordered the parts last night. According to the web site i went to, everything was in stock, had the add to cart button and everything next to the part number and description. Ordered all the parts i needed, circlips, head gaskets, o rings, and piston rings. Today, i get an email from the site saying that there are discontinued parts in my list. Luckily, i already had one of the items, the lower head gasket. I just wanted an extra... don't know why The other discontinued item in the list, THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE TOO, is the rings... I need .05 oversized rings for the D model GS300L. I think the Z model motorcycle is different becasue the bore limits are not the same between the D and Z model motors. PLEASE... SOMEBODY HAVE THE RINGS THAT I NEED. I went through all the machining and everything. i even looked before the machining was done and i thought i could still get them because the web site still had them for sale. If anybody has .05 oversized rings that they would be willing to sell, just send me a PM with the details or comment on this thread if you know where to get them. The part number is 12140-34240-050


    Thanks guys,
    KT

    What's the size of your pistons? I'm sure you can find rings.

    Call some folks but you'll need the size of the pistons.

      Your GS300L had 62mm pistons, if it was still stock. Specs are: Bore 62 x Stroke 49.6

      So you now need 62.5 mm ring sets. Here is a link to the superseded # (12103-34830-050) at Alpha who list the set available at $95.51

          As I told you before the pistons in the 300cc motor are the same as the GS650 and the rings of course are the same too. Try Z1 Enterprizes, that's where I got my rings from.

            So these are the .05 oversized ones then? The cans got honed out on my engine. They will work? Not standard size or 1.0 or anything?

              You need to measure up your bores to make sure what piston size you have. I thought you had bought 0.5 OS pistons and had bored the engine to them. If you're still stock and have honed the bores, you should be fitting up new stock rings. Either way, you must establish what size bores you are working with.

                  I saw the price for the rings too and almost passed out. That makes me just want to say F*** it. I love taht bike though. Want to make it run real bad. I think i can come up with the money. In a pinch, a tight pinch

                    They don't make .05 OS rings. They would only be 0.0025" larger than stock.
                    Your mechanic should have said 0.5 mm or 0.020". If he's suggesting that you fit them to baldly worn and honed stock bores, he's wasting your money. They'll never bed down properly because they will be slightly oval.
