Connecting Rods (Choice and Why)

<< < (5/5)

GREENKAW24:
Most of our engines are built for racing, so why not change the rod also. Heat ,stress, wear. Better to be safe than sorry. If you had all the inspection equipment to fully inspect the rod when it was new, record the numbers, and then inspected it again after disassembling to change the bearing, and it turns out that the rod did not physically change at all, then ok might as well reuse it.

WOSSNER WOSSNER WOSSNER!!!

Did I mention Wossner???
Yeah, best KX500 rod on the planet...
I spin them up hard... Yes, over 11K RPM

KXDINO:
Wossner the go , i use wossner on nearly every bike we have and what they do i notice is they improve on stock , like in some areas there slightly thicker where they have breakage on oem stuff , especially around the big end and beam side of things, they might be a smidge heavier but who wants a broken rod and cases.
