Not split ballbearing conrod. The conrod in conected to the crank via a split ballbearing instead of a bush tipe bearing. and the cranck is running on the same split ballbearings used on the conrods. the cams also use the same tipe. lots of moterbikes run on those tipe bearings. pull one apart and h...

Re: 731 Head - Route to take

If you are running a 2.7 setup it is pointless fitting a welded 731 head !! rather find a 885 head with bigger intake ports and valves. cuz the 731 narrows to the same valve size as the 200. even if u do have the bigger manifold its going to be useless and ul have a slow airflow through the manifold...
