@Harbor I have a press. I don't have the type of V blocks which would hold the crank true for measuring with a dial gauge. And I don't know what other fixtures I would need. I can buy a magnetic dial indicator, but I would have no idea how to true the crank if it was out of round. I have used a great CNC precision machine shop in Sacramento called Langills
https://langills.com/ They can likely do anything I ask of them.
@Big Kahuna what did you determine about your crank. Is is true or not?
But, if the crank is out of specification, the Yamaha Service Manual says, just replace it.
So, then the question is:
1. Drive it until it breaks?
or
2. Replace it every 25 years or so, just for good measure?
What do you guys recommend?
@Harbor I may be a little like you, but probably with fewer skills. Everything I have (including my body) is used. Everything will break eventually. I am up for fixing something myself because, I figure, all it can do is break anyway. . .
