Con rod side clearance measurement
Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2020 9:35 pm
Good evening all,
How critical is the conrod 'side clearance' on the crankshaft?
My genuine manual says 0.6mm max (I think, it's not in front of me at the moment). I seem to have quite a lot more.
The engine was running well and sounded fine before it came apart, originally to sort a couple of bad helicoils in the head, but the job is growing arms and legs...
Bike is a gpz1100b2
Thanks, Olly
