rvf and vfr cranks, are they same?

Post by Spike16 » Sun Jun 06, 2010 5:35 pm

just wondering I know the gearbox heads and pistons are all different but are things like the crank and rods the same and interchangable?

Yes as far as I am aware they are the same. Rods n pistons differ but crank is the same.

NC30 microfiches :)

Only have to look and see if the part numbers are the same...

According to those I see that the Rods are the same..

13210ML0020 - Front bank

13220ML0020 - Rear Bank.


It's interesting to note that ML0 is an NC2x Part number...

NC2x's from From Serial#: 1082547 share the same Rods as the NC30 / NC35 :)
