Whether or not they even made some cranks with a removable gear I don't know , I do know  ,  when I first got into 300s and needed a crank , the parts prints showed the crank with the gear being removable and a part number for that gear , but now the prints have been revised and the gear is no longer shown 


Well that sucks about the schematics.  Probably changed when the part was discontinued/superceded

Decided to get back at it today as parts have been sitting here for weeks. I want to start fresh with new seals so I KNOW what I have. Got a few things replaced today…still working on replacing more seals..

Not a piece of dirt in the oil screen! I snapped the shifter bolt off, the rear 8mm bolt on the cylinder was total rusted & I had to use kroil & work it so it didn’t snap. One clutch cover bolt was corroded bad as well. They will all be getting cleaned up.

Gonna drop the head off tomorrow at machine shop. Have new valves, seals, & springs to install, so I’m going with 5angle valve job, port & polish the intake & exhaust. Want to really make sure this mini beast flows!

Well I dropped the head off. Best they can do is a 4 angle valve job, & they don’t port & polish due to time restrains. It’s a very busy shop. He did say he would do what he could for me though. This is the same shop that did my head on my 355bbk.

So what happened there?  Your decision hopefully.

 

If you don't want to elaborate I understand, but you did kinda throw it in the middle of the post.

sure wasn’t my decision. Once I was cleared for full duty from short term disability, I was let go. Very large severance though… 7.5yrs with the company..

Well that sucks.  Glad you got some severance though.  Hope you find something even better!

If I built a motor like that I'd take it out and sink it the first time I rode it.  That's just how it goes for me.  I can ride a smoking beater for years with no mishaps.  You put me on a fresh rebuild with custom parts, and that thing is doomed.

i don’t ride deep mud or water. Mines built for forest roads & trails. Now keep in mind my version of trails is mostly seismic lines. So they really aren’t atv trails if u know what they are. So I need to be able to get thru muskeg/mud/bogs/mountain hill trails ect. I def won’t trash it as I never have.. that’s why she stays in top top shape for the year! Lol

Finally back at er. Got the clutch case all clean & prepped for reinstall. New reverse/kick start seal. New o-ring for oil pump seal. New oil filter & took apart & cleaned the bolt/nut for the clutch adjustment. 
 

Now to start on removing the clutch, clean up the case, replace them & chain & get case back on!

Picked up the head. Looked great till I got home. They were supposed to tap out the snapped bolt. So it will go back & they apologized. But other than that, looks great! I’m pretty much ready to get er together!
