Sentence 5 of the class one rules says any wrist pin beating and then sentence 6 and 7 says aftermarket piston pin bearing must be same brand as cylinder.
@Mastermind

My thought - only oem ppb is really any good for this model.
Same with circlips
Thats the way i read it dave.

I didn't go back to re-read...
I thought the PIN had to match the piston used... As in no OEM pin in A/M piston...
OEM pin is lighter

The bearing and crank that come with the kit must be used.
I guess it was this sentence that got me, since pressing apart the crank to replace big end is pretty uncommon. Thx for the replies dudes, game on.

That's not what it says. Doesn't say bearing must be aftermarket

I see it both ways, I guess.
@Mastermind's quote- "The bearing and crank that come with the kit must be used".

I believe he meant "bearings", as in main bearings, not rod bearing or wrist pin bearing.
instead of being direct about it he should be more clear as to not confuse members here lol.
