Main bearing clearance
Check clearance by using gaging plastic (1) according to the fol-
lowing procedure.
1) Remove crankcase.
2) Clean bearings and main journals.
3) Place a piece of gaging plastic to full width of bearing (paral-
lel to crankshaft) on journal, avoiding oil hole.
4) Install crankcase to cylinder block.
Tighten crankcase bolts, following sequence in the figure.
Tighten crankcase bolts to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Thrust and journal bearing cap bolt (8 mm thread diame-
ter) (a) :
60 N·m (6.0 kg-m, 43.5 lb-ft)
Thrust and journal bearing cap bolt (10 mm thread diame-
ter) (b) :
27 N·m (2.7 kg-m, 19.5 lb-ft)
5) Remove crankcase and using scale (2) on gaging plastic (1)
envelop, measure gaging plastic (1) width at its widest point.
If clearance exceeds its limit, replace bearing. Always
replace both upper and lower inserts as a unit.
A new standard bearing may produce proper clearance. If
not, it will be necessary to regrind crankshaft journal for use
of 0.25 mm undersize bearing.
After selecting new bearing, recheck clearance.
Main Bearing Clearance
Standard : 0.024 – 0.044 mm (0.0009 – 0.0017 in.)
Limit : 0.060 mm (0.0023 in.)
NOTE:
Tighten 10 mm thread diameter bolts first (following the
order shown in the figure) then tighten 8 mm thread
diameter bolts.
NOTE:
Do not rotate crankshaft while gaging plastic is installed.

Selection of main bearings
•STANDARD BEARING :
If bearing is in malcondition, or bearing clearance is out of
specification, select a new standard bearing according to the
following procedure and install it.
1) First check journal diameter. As shown in the figure, crank
web has stamped numbers and alphabet at the center.
3 kinds of numbers (“1”, “2” and “3”) represent the following
journal diameters.
Journal diameter :
2) Next, check crankcase (bearing cap) bore diameter without
bearing. On lower surface of lower crankcase 4 alphabets
are stamped as shown in the figure.
3 kinds of alphabets (A, B and C) represent the following cap
bore diameters.

3) There are 5 kinds of standard bearings differing in thickness.
To distinguish them, they are painted in following colors at
the position as shown in the figure.
Each color indicates the following thickness at the center of
bearing.
Standard size Main bearing thickness :
4) From number stamped on crank webs at its center and
alphabets stamped on crankcase lower side, determine new
standard bearing to be installed to journal, by referring to
table shown below.
For example, if number stamped on crank webs is “1” and
alphabet stamped on crankcase is “B”, install a new standard
bearing painted in “Black” to its journal.
New standard size bearing specification :
5) Using gaging plastic, check bearing clearance with newly
selected standard bearing.
If clearance still exceeds its limit, use next thicker bearing
and recheck clearance.
6) When replacing crankshaft or cylinder block and crank case
due to any reason, select new standard bearings to be
installed by referring to number stamped on new crankshaft
or alphabets stamped on new crankcase lower side.Color painted Bearing thickness

•UNDERSIZE BEARING (0.25 mm) :
0.25 mm undersize bearing is available, in 5 kinds varying in
thickness.
To distinguish them, each bearing is painted in the following
colors at such position as shown in the figure.
Each color represents the following thickness at the center of
bearing.

•If necessary, regrind crankshaft journal and select undersize
bearing to use with it as follows.
1) Regrind journal to the following finished diameter.
Finished journal diameter :
64.738 – 64.756 mm (2.5487 – 2.5494 in.)
2) Using micrometer, measure reground journal diameter.
Measurement should be taken in 2 directions perpendicular
to each other in order to check for out-of-round.
3) Using journal diameter measured above and alphabets
stamped on lower crankcase, select an undersize bearing by
referring to table given below.
Check bearing clearance with newly selected undersize
bearing.
