125 Sachs Piston Question?

[Dennis Jones]

I am doing a top end on a 125 5A iron barrel. The piston was already removed and the corners of the skirt are beveled off at 45 degrees. 2 look smooth like they were cut and 2 look rough like maybe broke. All the pistons I have ,have square corner skirts. What should this engine have? Thanks in advance.

The piston is a "early" Sachs style, not the same as the later radial head model. They have different grooves up towards the rings. Al Buehner or Larry Perkins can help you out!

Thanks Kip, It looks like I need to buy a piston, I have both Al & Larry's numbers.
