Did you look under the intake for the letter?

You'll need a bore gauge to determine what size piston you require.

Difference from A to B is 0.01mm, and so on from B to C etc

The cylinder is marked E on the intake side, 2cm from bottom. Clearly, piston size is marked A-D, so cylinder is unmarked.

Using a bore-gauge tomorow. Typical that im in a hurry and get and unmarked cyl.

Still have not answered my question thought. I still doesnt know what size A, B or D is. If I measure XX,96, still doesnt know what piston I need.

Please clearify what size for example A piston or D piston are.

The clearance between the cylinder and the piston should be around 0,06mm!
Means, when measuring 72,00 on the cylinder the piston is 71,94!

If you take a look at Wossner's home page and select your engine size and year, they will show you what bore size pistons A B C will fit.

My cylinder is 72,01mm. Makes my piston with 0,07 in clearence a B piston.
isnt 0,07 too much? Ive heard more 0,05-0,06 (making my piston A)

Thats backwards. An A piston will give you more clearance again. Based on what you specced your cylinder at Wossner suggest a B which gives 0.07mm clearance. Thats a forged piston, so you may wish to run a bit more than a cast. I'm sure you could drop a C piston in and still be fine, but what if..?

What was the size of the piston you just pulled out?
