crow Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Got a GSXR 1100 motor of unknown history, there seems to be some wear on the gudgeon pins as pictured. Can just about feel the scoring with a fingertip, micrometer tells me the diameters are within spec. Anyone tell me if this is normal, or worth replacing while it's apart? Quote Link to comment
crow Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Should mention these are Wiseco parts I think rather than OE Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 What do the Little Ends measure out at? Steel is harder than bronze so would expect them to be oval if the pins are worn! New pins aren't gonna be much good with worn rods. Quote Link to comment
crow Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 Similar story with the rods - looking a bit sorry for themselves but measuring within spec both normal and parallel to the rod. Don't have the right kit to measure the little ends properly so that's based on squinting really hard at my vernier calipers... Quote Link to comment
