Re: Stator cover and gas smell
I still don't see how a radial bearing would do that.
You might want to take the rotor and stator plate off and inspect the seal.

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
Makes no sense to me either. Any chance of elaborating on that theory David ?

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
Lateral movement is being allowed, or restrained by both bearings. If the clutch side is good, the crank wont move.
Vertical movement is only allowed, or restrained by the side being tested. He is prying on the stator side, so the clutch side can not restrain movement on the stator end.

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
Used KOR for a crank rebuild. It was for a yz125, came back looking brand new and in tighter spec then OEM. Dropped it off to him on a Thursday morning, got a call the next day it was done. Never used him for a replate though.Kngnthn76 wrote:Anyone used Ken O'Conner for crank rebuilds and jug replating?

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
I just had my replating done by Millennium - it's perfect. RB Designs did my crank rebuild. $45 and fast turn around. Ron does great work too!

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
I sent him 2 cranks and 2 ProX Rod Kits. Shipping from WA state to OR was about $15. Ron charges $30 return shipping on top of the $45 rebuild cost. He fit both cranks in one box, so my return shipping was half of normal.Jason wrote:ericr, what did it cost you for shipping? What did it ost you to ship it, and what did he charge to ship it back?

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
For crank rebuilds I can personally recommend RB Designs or Ken OConner. The place in Texas had a chance and screwed up big time and I wont go there again.

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
Very interested to hear how it was screwed up? Andrew has been always top notch and everyone in my club uses him as well. Literally, you are the first I have ever heard say anything negative about him.Timtee wrote:I didnt know if I should mention names but the initials are CC.Jason wrote:Which place??

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
It was dirty and the runout was only within service limits. I had to true it up to get it within specs and clean it.SS109 wrote:Very interested to hear how it was screwed up?

Re: Stator cover and gas smell
Weird. Did he e-mail you picks of the runout before he shipped it back? He has always done this with every crank I have sent him. Cranks have always come back clean, and oiled, and very well packaged as well. I wonder what happened that your crank ended up like that. Did you contact him and give him a chance to take care of you?Timtee wrote:It was dirty and the runout was only within service limits. I had to true it up to get it within specs and clean it.
