Title: KX60 Crank Rebuild Service
Post by: cbrfrenzie on January 31, 2013, 05:31:15 AM

I have finally acquired all the parts needed to rebuild my sons 1997 KX60.  Going with the Wiseco +2mm piston and OEM rod and bearings.  I will be lightly stuffing the crank, turning down the cylinder base and recessing / re-shaping the head.  Some light porting work was also done to open up the exhaust and transfers a bit for the bigger bore.

I am looking for a reputable shop that can press apart my crank, install my new OEM rod and bearings, press crank back together and balance the assembly.

I have heard good things about D&D crankshaft rebuilding service out of Eagle River WI.

Who do you all use for this service, and/or whom would you recommend?

I will only use Pinsonnault Racing.
My crank will be going there next week for a rebuild, weld, and balance.

In all fairness, I have never used D&D crankshaft rebuilding service or heard anything about them.
