Dedication to the casting process that respects the genuine pistons

Replacement pistons for Kawasaki 2-stroke triples, which previously only had forged pistons made overseas. When many fans were in need of replacement pistons, Shift-Up Dream Timer Pistons started selling oversize piston kits for each 025 size by making new molds based on the dimensional data of the stock pistons. This is a high quality piston kit where all the component parts, from the piston manufacturing to the piston rings, are produced in Japan.

The cutout dimensions for the scavenging port portion of the piston pin bosses are based on the design for the first series. Looking at the piston from the back side, it is obvious that the design is similar to the factory cast piston.

Because it is difficult to determine whether a bearing is good or bad, there are actually many cases where small end bearings that are still in poor condition are reused and reassembled. Be careful not to rattle the bearing rollers or retainers because this can not only damage the piston pin but also enlarge the inner diameter of the small end on the connecting rod side. When replacing the piston, the bearing should be replaced at the same time.
Kit parts for repair parts that are indispensable during overhaul.

This is a cost-effective repair kit for carburetors, although it cannot be compared because single parts are not available. Float chamber gasket, various jets, jet needle & needle jet, starter plunger, various screws, etc. are sold in one set. If the parts can be restored by cleaning, it is fine, but if there is obvious damage or wear, be sure to replace the parts.

There have been many instances of plastic releases cracking, resulting in poor clutch intermittency. As a countermeasure, later models have replaced the plastic release with a bearing release that uses steel balls. This oil seal is compatible with such bearing releases. If the bearing release is installed with the old oil seal, it will cause oil leakage.
The resin adapter, which can crack if over-tightened, is now made of machined aluminum.
Clutch kit for full acceleration

The FCC kit is a clutch disc that reflects modern clutch technology. The Mach series clutches tend to be difficult to disengage when the engine is cold and slippery during start-up and acceleration, but when the FCC clutch kit is combined with low-viscosity gear oil, the clutch disengages well and does not slip, which has a good reputation.

The convex part of the friction disc protruding from the clutch housing interferes with the inside of the clutch cover as the disc moves when the clutch is disengaged. h2 does not simply use a friction disc, but a combination of parts with interference countermeasures.
Positive replication of parts symbolic of Kawasaki's uniqueness

The egg-shaped blinkers that were standard equipment on the first H1 series and W1S, as well as on the larger off-road models, were equipped with an internal damper unit and had a different structure than those for the moped class. The WH1 indicator made by Shift-Up can also be fitted with the factory lens.

The design of the stock rear-view mirror, which was standard equipment on the W1S and the first-generation Mach III, was used as a reference to ensure rearward visibility even with a single letter handlebar = the length of the stay was extended by 30mm. The aperture shape and clamp shape of the stock mirror body are completely retained. It is very popular among first generation H1 and W1S fans who want to cherish the original form.
- Point 1: The evolution of internal combustion engine machining technology and the use of new replica parts restore the original performance of the H1.
- Point 2: Attention to semi-wear parts that were not likely to exist!
- Point 3: Pay attention to the design of blinkers and rear-view mirrors, which affect the looks of the car!
