Kit Overview
The Spears Racing 477.18cc Overbore Piston Kit (+2mm) is designed for the Kawasaki Ninja 500, featuring JE Pistons’ advanced 3-ring FSR Slipper Skirt forging. Lighter than OEM pistons, this high-compression (12.8:1) kit includes:
  • 2 Pistons with JE’s Thermal Barrier Crown Coating, Lateral (horizontal) gas ports.
  • Piston Rings (x2 sets)
  • Lighter Wrist Pins (x2)
  • Cir Clips (x4)
  • Custom +2mm Head Gasket (special thickness) Custom Base Gasket
  • Bored and Re-Plated Cylinder with proprietary Nickel Silicon Carbide (NSC) plating
Why Choose Spears Racing?
With decades of expertise and a legacy of winning, Spears Racing delivers performance you can trust. Every component in this kit reflects our dedication to quality, precision, and innovation, ensuring your Kawasaki Ninja 500cc performs at its peak.
Unleash the true potential of your bike. Upgrade to the Spears Racing 500cc Overbore Piston Kit today and experience the thrill of race-bred engineering. A more recent advancement in piston design is lateral (horizontal) gas ports as a standard feature on Spears Racing pistons and an option on many others. This process places gas ports above top of the top ring land to provide combustion pressure access to the back side of the ring. Because these lateral holes are somewhat restricted by the small area above the top ring land, they are not quite as effective but are also not subject to clogging concerns.
Advanced Cylinder Plating
The OEM cylinder is bored, inspected, and coated with a superior NSC plating process by Millennium Technologies, trusted by professional race teams globally. This plating outperforms factory standards and comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, ensuring durability under extreme conditions.
JE Pistons’ Thermal Barrier Crown Coating
The kit features JE’s proprietary ceramic gold coating (.0015” thick) on the piston crowns, engineered for unmatched durability and performance:
  • Heat Reflection: Rejects combustion heat, reducing thermal stress on the piston crown.
  • Prevents Annealing: Minimizes material softening, extending piston lifespan indefinitely under proper conditions.
  • Boosts Efficiency: Reflects heat into the combustion chamber, improving exhaust gas velocity and power output.
This coating ensures reliability for high-performance street and track applications, protecting against deformation and material degradation.
Piston Design Features
Spears Racing pistons are engineered for extreme performance, incorporating:
  • Anti-Detonation Grooves: Reduce piston-cylinder contact at high temperatures and RPMs, protecting the top ring from detonation waves.
  • Accumulator Groove: V-shaped groove between top and second rings reduces ring flutter, improving seal and longevity.
  • Double Pin Oilers: Deliver twice the oil to the wrist pin, enhancing lubrication and durability.
  • Precision Pin Fitting: Honed pin bores with clearances from 0.0003” to 0.003” for optimal performance.
  • Optimized Cam and Barrel: Custom skirt shapes ensure tighter clearances, less noise, better ring seal, and increased power.
  • Custom Laser Marking: Each piston is serialized with part number, batch.
Installation Recommendations
Spears Racing recommends using surface gap spark plugs:
