+ | Check to see if your crank is out of true. The idea is to measure how much the end of the pinion shaft wobbles. ((aswracing of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1578649)) \\ | ||
+ | Up to .005"-.006" out there at the end of the shaft doesn't propose a huge problem. Most motors you measure will show this much. \\ | ||
+ | But above that is not good. Crank spread is a reality of racing these bikes. The flywheels want to spread apart on the side opposite the crankpin. \\ | ||
+ | When they do, the pinion shaft wobbles. You get real bad wear on the oil pump drive gear (this is why Buell went to a bronze drive gear). \\ | ||
+ | Harley never put it in the XL's because they're lower powered and it's less of an issue. But still sometimes they grenade and make a mess. \\ | ||
+ | Pinion shaft wobble also causes teeth to break off the pinion gear, and the pinion bushing to wear, and cam bushings to wear. \\ | ||
+ | To confirm pinion shaft runout dims, make the measurement as in below. \\ | ||
