[QUOTE="titoislaidlow, post: 926045, member: 61401"] I have a 2001 RM 125. It recently had a fresh top end. It has also had a new bottom end done within the past 2 years. This is my question. There are 2 aluminum inserts on the crank on both sides. Somehow one of the 2 bolts that hold these inserts in worked its way loose and destroyed 1 of the aluminum pieces. I was lucky that it ONLY damaged the inserts and the piece it broke was large and did not fall into the case. Now for my question. I do not want to do an entire new bottom end because this one was a new Suzuki one. I am assuming it was a crap bolt that broke it loose and caused this. Suziki does not sell just the aluminum, they only sell the entire crank set (over $200). I know Yamaha makes theirs out of plastic, What can I do? Or am I stuck with a crank thats no longer good because of this aluminum. Any help is greatly appreciated! ~tito :coocoo: [/QUOTE]
