L.A. Sleeve Announces ATV Piston
Line
L.A. Sleeve Pistion Line
Will be Showcased at 2011 Indy Dealer Expo
Los Angeles, CA (2/15/2011)
- Combining the industry's finest piston making
minds, and their six decades of motor building
salvation, in association with L.A.SLEEVE, the
next great piston is upon us. Introducing, the
Los Angeles Piston Company. L.A.SLEEVE has entwined
their knowledge with the great race engine builders
of yesterday, and today, to come up with what
they think will answer the demand of so many,
a great piston top MX and ATV professionals can
punish for so much longer, at an economic solution
the average rider can afford.
LAPC will offer 2-stroke and 4-stroke piston
for most modern dirt bikes and atv's. Unlike their
piston making counterparts, LAPC will not create
a mass produced market monster. Instead, the LAPC
will focus on only today's most popular models
for offroad, mx and atv racing and recreation.
While limiting their product line to only popular
models, their focus will concentrate at the finer
points of piston flaws not being addressed by
the big name piston brands.
LAPC will use their resources in racing to dissect
the little things not being addressed by the mass
produced piston brands. All LAPC pistons will
have enhanced 2618 low silicon, or 4038 high silicon
materials as their forgings. Pistons will be coated
with their proprietary "ProMalloy" skirt
and dome skating surfaces. And, patrons get at
no extra charge Pro-Cross Pro-Cool under crown
micro machining for uniformed deck thickness.
They're just lightened enough, with spun-bossed
and window milling, gas ported (if necessary),
and grooved reduction valleys to grab any residual
combustion gas not being captured by the initial
piston ring defense. And finally, precision honed
wrist pin bores are standard for all piston applications.
Custom pistons will not be offered by the Los
Angeles Piston Company. In order to produce a
fine line of pistons for the professional rider
and race team, yet remain economical for the average
weekend warrior, LAPC strategically positions
their place among the piston maker elites by not
forgetting what creates a lasting relationship
among their customers - affordability, quality
and service. LAPC will focus their piston line
with those users in mind. Piston kits will range
in the retail price of $62.00 to $120.00 for 2-strikes,
and $78.00 to $205 for 4-strokes.
The LAPC pistons will be sold exclusively through
Niks Distributing and L.A.SLEEVE. To learn more
