I discovered a bent rod in my 77 750k during assembly. 836 weisco 10.25:1 cr. built head w/ port, cam.
Bike is a street bike, might see strip once a year.
Will be replacing with rods(undecided on which brand), getting the crank balanced(possibly lightened). Also throwing the idea around of getting the tranny undercut, however I'm not sure how involved removal and reassembly is. While the cases are split what else should I be replacing?
So far...
crank and rod bearings
oil seals - kit?
primary chains - oem
tensioner - oem
clutch was fine for stock setup, will I need extra plates? hd springs?
anything else i'm missing?
Should I leave the crank alone? It is a street bike, are these often off balance much?
Like the price of the cycle-x rods, i know they are on the porky side, anyone have any good/bad to say about them?
