Anyone see a use for these?

I hate throwing stuff away but I have 2 x pistons from my old Triumph T595 Daytona and I'd like to use them somehow in a project, anyone see a use for them?

Anyone else?

Google images "piston projects" gives a few ideas:

Thats neat.

What happen to the third?

 

[Exuptoy]

Thats why I only have 2

I knocked the bottom end out and had to change the engine.

 

[dobbslc]

Oops!

I've got an ashtray I made from the top of a piston decades ago. I think that was from a 500 Triumph twin. Not sure why I made it really, since I don't smoke, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. The internet wasn’t even in sci-fi movies back then so googling piston projects wasn’t an option!

wrap them up in christmas paper in the shape of a bottle & give them to your partner/wife , the one gift she definately doesnt have already. no need to thank me.

She'd hit me over the head with it.

I've got a T595, if they're in usable condition i'd be interested in a couple of spares

 

[Exuptoy]

I've already ordered a clock 45mm clock face for one of them. Gonna see how it turns out first.

I have the black magnesium rocker cover you can have for the price of the postage. Can't remember if it has the cam sensor hole or not as mine was remapped to delete it. I'll take a look if you want it?

 

[lazybones51]

No problem, will be interesting to see how it comes out

Yeah i'd be interested in the cover thanks, mines the one with the cam sensor.

 

[Exuptoy]

Just looked and mine doesn't have that but you can chose a different tune with TuneEcu without the cam sensor. You're welcome if you want it, also found a pair of T595 cams too. There is a rear wheel speed sensor there too but not sure if it was from the T5 or my Aprilia Mille R. I know I replaced that one as it was faulty.

Send me postal details via PM and I'll check out the cost of postage, shouldn't be much probably around £8 unless you want the cams too as they weigh a bit then I'd expect it to cost around £15 all in.
