the flywheel side bearing on mine is bad, leaking a lil while running. when i tear it apart im going to go ahead and put a new crank in while im there. my ques is which is better wiseco or vitos? i put a hot rods in my friends last year and had good luck with it. if i get the wiseco im guna use the bearings that come with it, if i go vitos i was guna get the all balls.
 
I hear Wiseco cranks aren't made so well. They are made in China??? Vito's I am not so sure on there quality.. I would go with new Oem and or have your oem crank rebuilt or go with a Hot rods. Kor rebuilds them for a good price I hear and they also balance them very well.. <<<<< IMO that would be the best way to go..

I prefer the OEM bearings if you can go that route.
Just an fyi the All Balls bearings are the same bearings as OEM, they are koyo bearings, I just used a set of all Balls in my last build 2 weeks ago, they also come with good quality main seals, I got mine for 44 shipped on eBay
 
theres no up and down play on the rod but the side to side is at max clearance, so i was just going to replace it and save it for another engine i have. and im not riding it, havent since i figured out thats what it was. guna tear it apart in the next week or so. my banshee needs the same thing so gota do it too. gota have sumthin fast, m big bear just aint cuttin it lol.
