Message: [QUOTE="EYY, post: 1425802, member: 119913"] I strongly recommend getting a service manual before you do any work to it at all. To change the crank bearings and seals you will need to remove the engine from the bike, remove the top end and split the cases. Again, if you're mechanically minded and have a manual you should be fine. When you're removing the arm on the top of that kips rod, remember that the but has a LEFT HAND thread. Many people manage to snap them trying to undo them. Common problems with such old bikes are likely to involve worn cylinder plating, piston, clutch basket and kips valves. This is from my experience anyway. Cheers [/QUOTE]
