[QUOTE="2strokerfun, post: 1390280, member: 69719"] Was reading a couple of old articles from 1973 magazines on the introduction of the CR250M elsinore last night. Both articles mentioned the specially cast ART piston with "extra porosity" to help retain oil better. Honda spin doctors were apparently making a point to show the magazine guys this during their 1-hour introduction to the bike at Indian Dunes. I never noticed they were any different than any other cast piston, but I never read tried to compare them, either. I'll bet most of the thousands of elsinores never saw a cast piston again after the first overbore back in the day, though. The way I ride, a soft clay piston would probably be fine.... [/QUOTE]
