Model: Ktm Exc 530
Part: Engine

You can replace the piston on a KTM EXC 530 by loosening the bolts that secure the engine block to its housing in the central lower part of the frame: once the block is freed from its seat, you can loosen the bolts that secure the intake and exhaust manifolds. Then, you can unscrew the bolts that secure the cylinder to its seat to remove it and locate the underlying piston: this can now be freed from the connecting rod by removing the pin and the retaining ring. You can then position the new piston, securing it appropriately.
