How do you replace the piston of the Piaggio Zip?

In order to replace the piston of the Piaggio Zip, you need to loosen the screws that secure the engine block inside its housing: after it has been removed from its housing, you can proceed by loosening the screws that hold the cylinder in the upper part of the engine block. By doing so, it will be possible to remove it and locate the piston inside: this can be detached from the connecting rod by removing the retaining ring and sliding out the appropriate pin. In this way, it will be possible to insert the new piston into its seat, and then reassemble all the previously removed components.
