 If you put an 88-03 style piston into an 04+ bike, the skirt on the side will smack into the oil squirter and break it off. \\ If you put an 88-03 style piston into an 04+ bike, the skirt on the side will smack into the oil squirter and break it off. \\

 +Gasket thicknesses are especially useful when setting squish clearance. ((Tomcatt of the XLFORUM)) \\
 +The squish band is the quench area. ((rocketmangb of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=2075731&​page=13)) \\
 +The idea is to create turbulence in the chamber which helps the fuel air mix blend and distribute in the chamber. \\
 +So the squish is determined by the length of the barrels and the gaskets PLUS the deck height of the cases from crankshaft centerline. \\
 +(assuming the rods and pistons are correct) to the cylinder base) \\
 +You can buy several different brands / thickness i.e., (.010" and .020" base gaskets) and (.030" and .040") etc.  head gaskets to get the desired numbers. \\
