For anybody that has never used the Kawasaki ring compressor tool when putting their cylinder down over the pistons and rings. Watch this video and you will see why I always used this tool to get the pistons and their rings into cylinder!!! Its like a 2 or 3 minute job with this tool!!!! Screw the popsicle sticks, or using piston scratching hose clamps!!! Even the individual Suzuki ring compressor tools don't even come close to what a quick and easy job the Kawasaki tool does!!!!!

Damn I wish I never sold my Kawasaki ring compressor when I needed money to pay my rent years ago!!!!

Glad I still have mine. One for the 650 and one for the 900. Makes it really simple and easy.

Unbelievably easy to put the cylinders on the pistons with this tool. I have one for 900cc but I need one for 1015 cc.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

I even used the 1000 tool on GPz1100's and even on my Moriwaki 1103cc pistons.

Still worked like a champ on both!!!!!
