I need some opinions on what I should do with this ZX-9R that I have. Every other thread that I have tried, I get an answer from some one that is reading out of the shop manual. I have had many things answered here back when I had my FX4 Level II and I know that there are a lot of motor guys on here. I know that there has also been a few people on here that have spun a bearing.
So with that said, I bought the bike with the spun bearing pretty cheap. The kid tried to run from the cops and when they caught up to him the bike fell over and starved the number 2 cylinder and ran for 10-15 sec like that. I have check the crank with a mircometer and it is within limits spec. by the book. There is no discoloration on the crank and it looks like the rod bearing took all the damage. So would you say that the crank needs to be replaced because the dealership said that I had to, or go ahead and replace all the bearings and run it?
sorry about the long post I just want advice that I know is coming from good people
