2004 Yamaha TW200 Engine Rebuild

  • Picked up a TW200 in a package deal. It needed work. I originally thought it'd be a simple piston ring replacement, but it ended up being a smoked crankshaft.
    While apart, i blasted and powdercoated the cases. Bike is still being worked on, but engine runs well!
    The porting made a noticeable difference in the high RPMs. Carb needs a rejet to get some low end throttle response back.

    You need to find a mechanic. If you don't know what you are looking at. I worked for Porsche for 20 years and you don't have any confidence of what you are doing.

    I've never seen a TW engine painted like that. Looks cool. I'm in the process of changing a crankshaft due to oil starvation. I didn't tighten the oil galley bolt after an oil change and things went south in a hurry. My piston was ruined. I put in a new piston/rings, honed the cyclinder as it was ok. Ran good for about 6 months of riding and then the crank problem happened. The lower rod bearing was gone. You had wiggle in your rod, I had wiggle waggle :). Thanks for sharing your video.

    Great job. Bout a xt225 awhile back and rebuilt it same way top and bottom. Starts and idles good but at around half throttle it starts cutting out. I slid it to the back burner out of frustration but hope to get back to it soon. Could be slipping clutch, carb, electronic, leaking valves. I'll get it sorted out one of these days.

    " As always beat stuff with a hammer " hahaha, noted. 😂 Watching this while doing a top end Rebuild. Leaking oil through front of head/cylinder? Replacing the gaskets and hopefully it'll work. Tried patching it but just kept weeping a lil oil so I decided to rip it apart and replace it. Was hoping to see some video of your process with that if you have any. If not that's okay, thanks anyways and awesome video man. Salud from Cali.

    You said you increased the bore size on this rebuild. Can you tell me new the bore size and displacement? I'm assuming you kept the same rod, but bored out the cylinder and increased the piston and ring sizes, right?

    • @texanmotoworks4274
      @texanmotoworks4274  Před 6 lety +1

      It was bored the first size over, which is .5mm. Displacement increase is negligible but can be calculated. You can keep the same rod. You do need a new piston and rings, correct.

    Do the countershaft and crankshaft need to be balanced together? Since you changed the crank does the counter need to be mated to it?

    • @texanmotoworks4274
      @texanmotoworks4274  Před 2 lety

      They don't. They need to be "timed" so they are in the correct phase, but the weight/balance of a new crank is not different enough to require a new matching/balanced counterbalance shaft. In reality i bet the components vary within a few ounces most likely. So a perfect 0 gram balance isn't achieved from the factory, or ever.

    • @texanmotoworks4274
      @texanmotoworks4274  Před 4 lety

      Thanks! I'd advise a rebore if you have the time, energy and money. But if the cylinder walls look good, a light hone and quick check of bore dimensions should work for you.
      Always do new rings, at least. If the piston looks okay you can run it. I clean mine with a soft wire wheel when I reuse them.

Just wondering if you recommend replacing the piston 1st and running, or just move forward and replace the crank since I'm 1/2 way there anyways?

    • @texanmotoworks4274
      @texanmotoworks4274  Před 5 lety

      With any bearing install use differential heating. Example: case bearings drop straight in if you heat the case to about 300 degrees and freeze the bearing overnight. Do that the the crank bearings and you should get close. When closing the cases the mechanical force will press the bearings on the crank. HIGHLY recommend getting a "crank puller" tool. Makes the job easy.
