Sv650 Crankshaft Thrust Bearing Issue


2Smoke

Recommended Posts

I'm after a bit more advice if possible..
When I stripped the motor on my SV, I didn't see a thrust shim on the end of the crank, nor the casings.
Seems a bit odd, but it's definitely not there.
Have measured the clearances as per manual, and I have .15mm (tight) gap between the right hand casing & the primary drive gear assembly. Whereas it should be .050-.110. So it's slightly out.
But..
From the Suzuki manual, the thrust shim thickness starts at 1.925mm so with this fitted I doubt the crank would even rotate!
Is it possible it's never had one fitted from new?
Thoughts?
Thanks
Paul

That's alright, I mean it's not as if you do anything for a living where just such a mistake could have serious consequences is it?

Is it......

Hence why I'm av/elect! :eusa_whistle:

Hey, 10 years in the business and only been at the shit end of a board of inquiry once. Not bad I think :)
