eldreder Posted May 10, 2011 Author Report Posted May 10, 2011 i just took the jugs off, it doesn't look terrible, but i'm not sure of everything to look for, so we'll see what happens the more i progress Quote
eldreder Posted May 10, 2011 Author Report Posted May 10, 2011 my brother was checking out the crank, and found the problem. here's a video of it Quote
Larry's Shee Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Amazing how needle bearings can defy gravity , get sucked up and trash the top end. Quote
BigRed350x Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Send your cylinders off to Kevin at Herr Jugs Racing and he can take care of you. Bore/hone/new top end/porting if you want it. He can also help you out with the crank and any bearings you will need. Give him a call, his number is in my signature. - Jared Quote
jktc25 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 we can start buy 2 new connecting rod and go to the yamaha store and ask for a oversize piston for ur jug and thats it no more problems remember to buy 2 pistons not only 1 Quote
Larry's Shee Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Plus by the time you pay for parts AND labor to rebuid a crank you can buy all new. I'm sure others will verify this fact. Quote
