nobleswood Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 This drifting of this thread ties in with the horror story Pete Roper is telling over on WildGuzzi & Grisoghetto. Broken parts lost in the engine, frozen camshafts & trashed flat tappets. Not for the squimish
luhbo Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Shouldn't the upper eye of the conrod be round? Is it all the same on Jap bikes? How come it's came that long?
swooshdave Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 You know the topic has spun out of control when we are looking at too many KLR pictures...
Lucky Phil Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 You know the topic has spun out of control when we are looking at too many KLR pictures...You know I think this was an "engineering" topic as much as anything that has now taken on a extra philosophical element which I kind of enjoy:)Some of the best threads end up this way. You learn about the engineering and get the life lessons for free. Ciao 4
Chuck Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Shouldn't the upper eye of the conrod be round? Is it all the same on Jap bikes? How come it's came that long? Pretty good eye. It's .003" out.

moto fugazzi Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I would like to buy a spring as well. 2 if you can spare an extra as I'll probably buy another V11 in the future. Ken
Chuck Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I'd like to have one to put on the test bench.. Well, it's only QC. What do we have? Is it to spec, etc.
Scud Posted January 21, 2018 Author Posted January 21, 2018 I think there will be plenty of springs to go around - and we can always have another batch made. I suppose they should be arriving next week or so.
docc Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 I'd like to have one to put on the test bench.. Well, it's only QC. What do we have? Is it to spec, etc. "[springs]. Why did it have to be [springs]?" > "[shift Springs]. Very dangerous. You go first . . ."
