I just sent it out wednesday. im getting a rebuild and possible stroker crank, btw does anyone know how much stroker cranks are? I was also thinking how much would it cost to have the frame sand blasted/powdercoatedI:I. Thanks
 
um look at ebay for a stroker crank they are not that much. about $160.00. your gonna need all the seals and such. that will be alot more labor in the shop as well. if you want your frame sandblaster and powdercoated it gonna run about anywhere from $300.00 to $400.00
 
I just put the hotrods 4mill crank in mine gave 190.00 for it then i had to get the cases trenched which you cost bout 150.00 then had to have 2mm toook out of the head 50.00.
 
so all together its gonna be like 800? But my freinds uncle is a ppg painter and my friend said hed probably do it for free but id have to pay 4 the materials so ppg or powdercoat?
 
no not like $800.00 if you get the vitos +3 stroker crank it come with a spacer plate so you dont have to trench your case. powdercoat is very strong and duable, but if you are going to rip your bike down to do the frame you may as well do all your parts. whats the point of takin it apart twice?

im sure any shop would put the vitos +3 stroker crant in for the same cost as puting in a new factory crank.
 
yeah so like 250 for a stroker? plus labor.
so you reccomend the painting? im just afraid of it not lasting cuz that would blow spending so much on on paint and taking so much time taking it apart and sh*t u know. and have it not last.
 
no i recomend the powder coat. its stronger and lasts longer. all i was saying was if your going to tear your bike down to PC the frame you may as well PC the rest of your parts as well. $250.00 installed for a stroker crank? i would pay that. not to bad of a price.
 
i have no idea how much it would be in labor. it would be best to just call a shop and ask them what an estimate for the install. they will be happy to help you.

you can find the stroker crank and bearings and seals on ebay. take a look.
 
Yeah i was looking last night. they dont have any 3mms all they have are 4s. but they have a vitos 3 but apparently vitos dont come with a spacer plate bcuz it requires case sanding or something like that, trenching probably.
 
No. I have the vitos +3 and it does come with a spacer plate, but you do have to file a little around the top of the case to fit the big end of the crank through. No big deal though it can be done with a simple hand file. The biggest problem your going to have is even with the spacer plate the port timing is off and you'll have to get it adjusted to get the power out of it. it still runs without adjustment just not very good.
 
yeah but thats 200 dollars i dont have to spend. never mind filing the case. its more work! well for someone else. but i dont have the money either. it just need it fixed.
 
Not all the time. a lot of stock sh*t cost way more. either way if i need a rebuild im obviously not gonna go stock. whats the point if i need a crank ill get a stroker.
 
yeah but i dont want to have to file (or have to pay for it to be filed)
and
dont you need porting to make it run correctly

you need to hand file a little bit for rod clearence, and yes it does have to be ported to line eveything back up right. the trinity exhaust is an awesome pipe insane top end power, pretty much the same pipe as power pros!
