To fit a piston ring on a Suzuki LT80, first ensure the piston and ring are clean and free of debris. Align the ring end gap with the designated mark on the piston, typically located on the side opposite the intake port. Gently compress the ring using a ring compressor or by hand, taking care not to twist it, and then carefully slide it into the cylinder. Finally, install the piston into the cylinder, ensuring it is oriented correctly, and secure it in place.
To use a piston ring compressor with a pusher, first, place the piston into the cylinder and ensure the rings are properly aligned. Slide the piston ring compressor over the piston, adjusting it to snugly fit around the rings. Next, use the pusher to gently press the piston into the cylinder, ensuring the rings are compressed evenly as it enters. Finally, remove the compressor once the piston is fully seated in the cylinder.
You have to disassemble the entire engine, remove the piston and check the rubber ring around that piston.
The DNJ ring spec. information, printed on each compression ring (located next to the piston ring gap), is installed facing the top of the piston for both the top (#1) and middle (#2) compression piston ring slots. The oil control ring can be installed just like any other oil control ring in the bottom (#3) piston ring slot.
a piston ring is not calibrated. You just slide the new one in place

one ring per piston, the pistons have a groove in it where the ring fits on.
You mean a piston ring. It seals the gap between the piston and the chamber in your engine
The purpose of a piston ring expander is to make it easier remove and install piston rings. Because of the low torque they use, they help to prevent damage to the piston rings.
The lowest ring is the oil ring
The "D" on a piston ring typically indicates the cylinder bore diameter for which the ring is intended. The "N" refers to the ring's position on the piston, such as top, middle, or oil control ring. Together, "D N" specifies the ring's size and location within the engine.
