here you go, from Supertune website:
At last a top quality 70mm piston suitable for any piston ported Lambretta cylinder made for us by Mitaka who have a race proven reputation. A direct replacement, with a standard 16mm gudgeon pin to fit any standard crankshaft. Solid transfer cut outs reducing the risk of skirt fracturing around the gudgeon pin with two 1mm thick wire rings.
Sizes: 69.97 mm "A" , 69.98 mm "B" 69.99 mm "C"

None at AF?! I'm shocked by that as they are normally my 'go to place' for these.
