The /2 crank has no centre bearing – it’s like a wet noodle.
The R69 can go more than 1000 rpm faster than a /2 and has the damper in front and a special bearing in the rear to help save the crank.
The vibration damper on the front of the generator, which is the front of the crankshaft, is to counteract the flex of the crank at high rpm.
Whatever flexing the damper does not cancel out, the special rear bearing then absorbs.
(Part# 99113065R).
This rear main bearing on the R69 is a special spherical bearing to allow the crank to flex at high rpm without damage. Imagine a bearing that allows you to move the shaft up and down as you turn it.
Hi, I recently made an online order with you, and I would just like to say thank you. I received my order within two days of placing it that is great service. I will be placing more orders with you in the near future.
Many thanks Brian and everyone for all your help. I finally got the bearing carrier out and it was the pin as you thought Brian, somehow it had worked its way loose. The whole area does seem original and nothing had moved so I tapped the pin back in and filled the space with solder and used a centre punch to crimp the end over that I reckon it should work ok. The parts I ordered arrived today which once again is amassing. You all rock over there. I ordered a Clymers manual with the order, you informed me Brian that it was out of stock and you had them on a back order. Could you send me one when you get them in. Once again many thanks and kind regards to you all in the west.
