Budweiserallday Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Putting my cases back together and the back right side (if your looking from back to front ) is not sealing all the way . What could be my issue , crank moves fine and same with the trans . Should the top case seat all the way when just putting it on the bottom end or do you have to torque the bolts on the bottom down first? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Stock crank or aftermarket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Are they a set of matching cases? On the rear of the cases, there should be matching engraved numbers and letters. When you say, "not sealing", do you mean there is a visible gap at the case split? If so, assemble the cases empty and see if there's still a gap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dozer Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Stock crank or aftermarket i think what he is getting at is the stock crank has pins on the bearings that have to in the right spot for the cases to close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Also, if it has aftermarket crank bearings, do NOT use the full circle circlips that come on them. The grooves in the cases are not machined deep enough for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budweiserallday Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'm pretty sure it's a stock crank . I bought this bike together and tore it appart to change crank seals . And yes a very small gap . I guess I'll take everything out of the bottom end and see if the cases go together with ease and no gap .

J-Madd Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Like said, the pins that stick out of the stock bearings are probably in the wrong location. I busted some crank bearings torqueing down the cases like that. Didn't realize the bearings had moved during assembly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budweiserallday Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Does anyone have a picture of where the bearing pins are supposed to be ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Madd Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Those pins should be rested in the grooves on the case half edge. If they are up or down or not parallel to the case they will dig into the cases then break stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very faint. But the numbers should match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
