rev motor rebuild

[screech]

hey guys,
so i just ordered a bunch of stuff to re do my motor today. its in my 05 rev x 800... i'm doing a top end kit, seals and gaskets for top and bottom, and re packing crank bearings.

anything else that i should add? anyone have any little quirks to do or add alittle more uumph??
just got both clutches gone through and my motor already has the slp kit, with the high comp head, pipe/can, and v force 3 reeds.

just wanting to know if anyone else out there has any advice on anything i should do...


its on this sled...

Y-pipes coming loose are a common problem. Nordlocks are the answer.

If you havent already, go to mcmaster-carr get some nordlock washers and stainless allen head screws for your y-pipe. they also sell 5mm extended allen wrenches with ball joints so you can screw them in off axis. I cut my allen down so it will fit into a 5mm socket with a ratchet.

Get a dial indicator on that crankshaft and see what the run out is, you might be surprised.

if you havent already bought it, order the isoflex greese that you need to repack the crank bearings direct from manufacture. it's like 100 bucks for a 400 gram tube from them and like 60 bucks for a 50 gram tube from doo. not sure how much the 800s require but my 1000 took 500 grams according to service maunal so it was a huge savings.

Clean your rave valves realy well, compair spring's and seal between the two make sure everything is the same and not worn out.

the pto seal's are technically serviceable and can be put in with the case together but it is way easier to install them when the case is in two pieces.

Appearance wise

The only other thing you need is yellow thread on the seat stitching.
Great looking sled.
