Suzuki do a .50 oversize piston and ring set which is £119 per piston including rings. ETA on them is 2-3 days from order.

Would it not be easier to change the Suzuki pistons for Busa pistons which I know are easier to get hold of with overbores?

as said just go and see mr suzuki and get one new oversize piston and book you barrel in for a rebore,the biggest question is why did it sieze.and although i wouldn't bother normal practice when reboreing is to renew the big end shells
