[Hoony]

crank is cactus Paul, outer ring split, both cases have a big hole and possibly can be repaired ( will post pics to GMC later for his view) looking at options at present.

I dont know if he has what you want as his list isn't current but might be worth an email

Just put it back together with velcro, it will be easier to repair next time





Welding shouldn't be a problem if you can't find any.

[Hoony]

G'day Walter, will do! Shock worked well, noticed a difference with shortened shaft and O/Haul.

G'day Brad, thanks mate i will check it out. there is some on ebay at present but looks like a few interested parties,

Hey Hoony, the crank Paul has found would be good buying, I have a 84 500 crank spare and it cost me 160 delivered with freight being 60.00 USD. I see in his ad he says halves fit 84 to 01 so again remember I had the 84 250 crank that I got from Serco for 330.00 including main bearings brand new (all the same 84 to 01 on the 250).

So may be worth asking your local Serco agent if not let me know and I will take the crank I have to Serco machining in Brisbane for comparision.

If I am right has the tin cans on the side of the crank let go?? and punched a hole out the bottom of cases? One of my 250's had this problem and welded up ok so I am sure Geoff could weld ok.

The problem with the Honda cranks "is" the tin cans and they will run ok without (they say you lose a bit of bottom end power but that is not a problem on a 500) if it has done little running you may need to speak to the person how rebuilt it as the "cans" can be easily damaged when pressing.

PM Squirtmoto he is up with these models

G'day Shane,

i did enquire with serco yesterday about the crank after you gave me the heads up about the one you got for the CR250RE some time back and they said they don't do them for 500's.

yes you are correct the tin cans have let go and i suspect it may have been damaged when the crank was rebuilt, even though i used a guy that has done these before and was aware of the problem.

i will put a bid in on that item, thanks for your help and Many Thanks to Paul.
