List,
While at the machine shop today saw an article on 1275 cranks which claimed
that these cranks had to much weight around the journal center lines. That
this extra weight caused uneven bearing wear. It was interesting because
they pictures of this wear was a very good match to the odd wear patterns on
the bearing that we just removed. The suggested solution was to remove
counter weight material near the journals yielding a more triangular shaped
counter weight. Anyone heard of this or tried it??
