    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

ok here's the question
i have this beautiful welded and balanced crank and it has some scoring on the starter clutch end (see the pic) is it serviceable
or should i have it repaired and re-machined before i install it.
this is the only thing wrong with it other than this it's perfect and has about 20,000 KM on it max
i want to use it in my motor when i install an MTC 1055 kit compression is 12:1 so I'll need 94 octane to run it
but what do you think about the crank????

That is where the 2 bearings ride & I would have it polished & see how it looks after that. I think it can be made to work. Also, I have never heard of a 1055 piston kit. I am a WD dealer for CP Pistons if you ever need some made to your specs. A CUSTOM made set with all the bells & whistles, made to YOUR specs, with pins, clips, & rings would only be 700 bucks. You might find cheaper but you won't find BETTER! Ray.

That would be a 2mm over GS1000 kit. 72mm or 1055cc for a GS1000. MTC used to make them in the day and had several still on the shelf a few years back. Dar
