some questions for the techys out there: so i've heard that crankcase gaskets are no longer used, so does this mean i'll have to recalculate the gearbox and crankshaft endfloat? if so, what's the best method for measuring the endfloat? the haynes says to use a massive vernier caliper but it seems to be a very specialist tool, whereas i've already got a dial gauge . . . . . . . . what sealing compund is best for the crankcases? i'm eager to get this thing back together. riding the SV650 is alright, but it's got nothing on a Duc. now i'm just waiting for spares (thanks chi and nelly!). |
