Re: oversize piston kits
If you are just looking for a first oversize, "cruizinimage" in Japan is a good source. Decent quality and good support service. I am sure the "experts" who have done a gazillion CBX engine rebuilds will disagree with me - as usual - but I have used their products on several different bikes and they are all running great. Last one was my 1973 H1D.

Re: oversize piston kits
I've used a few sets of their pistons and rings, also had perfectly good results. I recall scattered reports of problems with their rings, but that was years ago and I haven't heard of any further issues. They've sold thousands of sets of pistons by now, and so I think it's a safe bet and an outstanding value.
YMMV
