SOUNDS LIKE THE FIRST RING LAND HAS BEN SQUASHED A BIT. DOES IT FIT MOST OF THE WAY THEN IS PUSHED OUT? IF SO YOU HAVE A  DAMGED RING LAND IN THE PISTON.

Talked to Kawasaki parts guy to day and he called kawasaki said they don't make rings for the old piston that have to buy new piston because they changed them? And the ring land looks good! So order a piston I guess!
