crankshaft

[dan87quest]

i've opened my cases for the hell of it to check things out.
all looks good but i would like to change the crank bearings and the rod.
my question is how do i get the crank seperated? press possibly
i can send it to the machine shop but they don't really do anything but car engines

you need a press and a jig to realign the halfs. most atv and dirtbike dealers will do it.
