Re: hard to rotate the lower shaft after changed bearing
its not really out of balance its out of phase it should do the same in the lower or upper crankcase as the bearing is what locates it, put your indicator on the shaft or even the bearing not the web and like everyone says get a copper hammer and get it back in phase (or align) with the inner web, t...

Re: O ring cylinder heads mod
hey Colin (good ride last weekend :grin: ), I have a program to do that, Yamaha is pretty consistent on keeping the piston .010 down in the barrel so you'll need to check your heads as they may be cut, I did a set last week and there was zero step because someone cut the head I have the orings for t...

This is the cover for the lower cylinder. Im waiting on all the red ones from the anodizors and I will chamfer it when I get them. But this is basically what it will look like.

Re: Race engine build
Wolfgangh's looks like the triple is not pulled back enough to hit the wrist pin area so hopefully the area above the pin is solid so he'll be good to go.

Re: Race engine build

Re: deck height for std. pistons
I will go on ebay in your neck of the woods and see if I can find one, I will be making one for my 350 so I could do that one as well. Thanks for the info.

Re: deck height for std. pistons
wow Wolfgangh I see what you mean has a thermo like the 350 has here in the states, that would be easy enough to draw in.
