CAUTION
Always check the main bearing journal clearance (see Crankshaft Main
Bearing/Journal Checking, Measuring and Bearing Selection), before final
assembly of the crankshaft. Failure to correctly select crankshaft bearings will
result in severe engine damage.
Select and fit new main and big end bearing shells using the selection
processes detailed in Crankshaft Main Bearing/Journal Checking, Measuring and
Bearing Selection.
1.
Lubricate all of the bearings with clean engine oil.
2.
Ensure that the crankshaft is clean, and that the oil ways within the crankshaft are
clean, free from blockages and debris.
3.
CAUTION
The crankshaft to idler gear timing will be lost when the crankshaft is removed. Do
not refit the crankshaft without first setting the crankshaft to idler gear timing.
Incorrect idler gear timing will result in incorrect camshaft timing. Rotating or
attempting to start an engine with incorrectly adjusted camshaft timing will result
in severe engine damage.
Install the crankshaft to the upper crankcase, ensuring the crankshaft drive gear
is correctly timed to the balancer shafts and idler gear (see Front Balancer Shaft -
Installation).
4.
Align the connecting rod big ends to the crankshaft pins.
5.
Fit, and in the correct sequence, tighten the big end caps. (see Connecting Rod -
Installation).
6.
Assemble the crankcases (see Crankcase - Assembly).
7.
Perform the following operations:
Barrels - Installation
Cylinder Head - Installation
Engine - Installation
Fuel Tank - Installation
Battery - Installation
Seat - Installation
Start the engine and ensure that the low oil pressure warning light goes out
shortly after starting.
