    Happened to me before. I always end up turning the circlips a few time in their slots now to ensure they are in place correctly, not like it makes a difference but it does help keep my mind at peace :p

    not many due to a circlip breaking you'd get around 1000 miles to a piston ring.

    One on the left is of a Yasuni c16 :) and it's not a rep :p For standard piaggio cylinders the one on the right is perfect. due to it having the oval on the cylinder. performs a better seal. But on my new cylinder that's been removed so going to use c16 stub to make more power :p
