piston and rings for gio 125cc

Hi everyone,
I was thinking of picking up a gio 125 dirt bike.
i am told it is burning oil so my main question is does anyone know where to buy new pistons and rings from?
Also, I am new to riding dirt bikes so curious if i will be to big for it.
Im 6', 155lbs
Im a little hesitant of a 4 stroke also, any suggestions?

eBay is a really quick way to get parts for cheap. I'd remove the head and measure the bore before ordering anything, and then a matching cylinder and piston would be easy to find.

My son started to close in on six feet when we sold his Gio 125 for something bigger. I had already upgraded from the stock 12/14 wheels to 14/17, and that wasn't enough to keep up with him.
