Shimming the shafts
Before assembling the crankcase halves, calculate the shims required to obtain the correct end float of the crankshaft and
gearbox shafts.
To determine the correct shim thicknesses proceed as follows.
Shimming the crankshaft
After fitting the new main bearings, proceed as follows to determine the total shim thickness “SA”:
Measure the distance “LA” between the bearing contact surfaces on the crankshaft;
Measure the depths “LA1” and “LA2” corresponding to the distance between contact surface of the crankcase half and the
contact surface of the inner race of the bearings.
