Looks like the pin is 18mm and the compression height is 33mm so you'll need a longer rod with the large small end diameter.

For the rod I would use a yamaha outboard rod 6H4 which is 116 long , 22mm crank pin and 18mm gudgeon pin.

The other option for your piston is a DT250 which is cheap and has oversizes to 71mm. Both the DT250 and YZ250's have 18mm gudgeon pins

Thanks for the replies ....ive decided to go with a wossner 72mm from AF , as the other options meant changing conrod and head :(

I take it they've got 16mm pins?
