My new piston kit finally arrived from Yambits after 3 weeks waiting. Going to install with a mechanic friend tomorrow. Its a 0.5mm upsize kit. I bought the bike rebored with new piston kit fitted, but top ring was broken. I have been reading of rings breaking due to ports not chamfered after reboring. Not sure if this is what happened here.
DT175G 1980 model 4L9 serial.
Are there any pitfalls I should be aware of when doing this installation?

Put one clip in on the bench too. Reduce the odds.
