If you can't find Mitaka, then buy Hi-Level copy of the Suzuki TS185 piston. Any motorcycle shop should be able to supply Hi-level piston kits (piston, rings, gudgeon pin and circlips). About £40, I guess.

I've both 65mm Mitaka and 65.5mm Wiseco. Wiseco lost it's ring peg after 500 miles tho, which to be fair is not a common problem with them...so prob' just an issue with mine which had very hi comp. Mitaka are good value for money pistons. HTC also do pattern pistons and can be found for approx £30.00 on Ebay (is that the Hi-Level?). I'd only go Wiseco after bore reaches 65mm and you can't get Mitaka ones then. Wiseco are forged too and cost £70.00 +
