Message: [QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1277061, member: 18302"] Choice A: New top end: $125 Gas to flush crank case $1 Crossed Fingers to ward off big end failure: No Charge Choice B: New top end: $125 New Crank Bearings: $60 New Gasket set: $70 Split Cases, Examine Crank, Install Bearings, Rebuild: $200 labor, +$200 if a new crank is needed The problem is if you choose A ($125) and the crossed fingers don't work, your bike will now need at least everyting on list B ($655), with the risk of adding a new cylinder ($300+), new crankcaske halves ($200 each), powervalve parts ($150?), new head ($75?), etc... Oh, plus whatever medical bills you incur if you seize up at a really really bad time. [/QUOTE]
