The piston is likely to be a Suzuki TS 185 piston, but probably a copy made by Mitaka. Don't worry, Mitaka pistons are very good, as are the rings.

Cheers, I found out that's exactly what it is..... Cleaned it all up, matched the inlet and exhaust ports, fitted a bigger carb and TSR EVO pipe and it's woken it right up! It's like a completely different scooter. Well pleased :)
