Paul Smeeton's Bitz for bikes sucks! I bought a 1982 175 IT piston 1/over but they sent me a piston kit that was for an earlier year I assume. the piston fit my new bore and everything seemed to be good but the pins that hold the rings in place were located incorrectly for a 82-83 IT and the result is the rings catch on the intake port and break, thus destroying your new bore and piston as well as possible bottom end damage.
I bought the piston kit from them since for some strange reason they are not available anywhere in the USA.......not even Wiesco.
I have been trying to communicate with them regarding that they are still advertising the incorrect piston and also what might they do for me since my new rebuilt motor is toast from their mistake.
Their response - through their live chat crap was.............you agreed to the terms of no returns or refunds
My response ......suck my ass and #uck you Paul you spineless little weasel!
OK, I feel a little better now but beware you may not get what you order from Paul and he obviously doesn't give a shit.
