The Athena Big Bore Race Cylinder Kit is designed for adult riders seeking enhanced performance from their Suzuki LT-R 450 2X4 (2006-2011). Its key benefit is increased power output due to a larger bore and improved cooling. A caveat is that it requires specially designed, high-performance power valves, meaning OEM parts cannot be used. This kit features an aluminum cylinder with a nickel-carbide coating and larger water jackets for superior heat dissipation, a forged piston with a molybdenum coating for durability, and high-performance, hard-anodized power valves.
