A friend bought a 03 YZ125 and is installing a fresh oem piston. The piston coming out of the YZ has a .006 gap which sounds way tight to me. Minimum Yamaha specs is .020. What is acceptable?

This is from my 2002 YZ125 manual. I assume the 2003 would be the same.

If you are running a stock piston then go by the factory specs. If you are running an aftermarket piston go by their specs.
