Kx5 cases

[lmhans4440]

Hello everybody, I'm Lee, and I'm new to the forum. I have been riding a CR500 and XR600 for years, and I just recently bought a 1992 KX500. I was wondering if there is a fix for the crank cases that have a sloppy fit for the main bearing? My left side case is good, as the bearing spun on the crankshaft, but my right case the new bearing just drops rite in. I hope to get this bike restored, but this crank case problem needs to be solved first.

Thanks Dave, I'll check them out.

Seems he was bought out by another company, which I called and was told they don't do automotive or motorcycle work. I guess I'll have to try to find someone else to do the work.

Arrow machine works bought the o-e-m company and he still does the plating. He is going to plate .004 on to my bearing, so we'll see how that works
