Title: need a new crank?
Post by: DeeG on July 19, 2010, 11:10:14 PM

I was going through Moto Bins site, checking to see whats available and how much for the upcoming engine tear down (well, not a complete tear down....) and noticed that they are having a special on the R45/R65 crankshaft.

Kinda bummed that I don't need one.  I love buying stuff when its on sale.... hehehe


Current price new is  86.08 pounds, regularly 330 pounds
$132 USD vs $504 USD

part number 10390

I had the same feeling.  Motobins have had that offer on for a long time now and the price has gradually come down so they can't be selling many.

I suppose it's reassuring that nobody needs them.

I can just imagine what shipping would be on a crank!  :o
