Is it a real pain in the @ss to replace the rod?  I like my dirt bikes to be reliable and don't want to blow a rod when I'm in mexico

Hold your horses,dcollins4328! :-D
This was at 10.000 rpm and with very light flywheel....
You "proberly" dont reach that rpm ever. :wink:

The best way is to true the crank and be very carefully when putting it
togheter again and use heat and cold and not any violent force.

Turboveining,very little effect I think. :?

steward,cast piston PROX.(do you remember last topic "power",I had some questions there for you IF you want to answer)? 8-)
Iceroad champion 2006,still 2007,even 2008 without a single race!

Chappie I've talked to from england said the stock rod was especially weak just below the small end eye. Also reckoned that the Vertex or OEM (in that order) pistons were the best.

Get the crank balanced by a professional, for the RPM that you will most be using!

Very useful post... Been looking for this info for a while :-D

i would think that not having  a forged wiesco piston is the reason for the brakon parts     we turn these moters 10200 rpm  which is all  they will rev  with 44 lectron            and i have never  broken a part  in a kx 500  moter with wiesco  piston and  every thing else right
