My engine guy builds alot of Desert Race KX500s and he was surprised to see it as well. According to Eric Gorr's book it is common on 500s that are revved hard under a sustained load(flying up sand dunes). In my case, when the bearing got sloppy it thru the crank out of true again. When I repaced the cases, I had the crank trued again and the crankpin welded to the halves. It's all good........If anyone needs it, the info for the place that can repair the cases is in Gorr's book(second edition)
