WBX Gudgeon pin little end bush clearance spec?

Post by itchyfeet »

Can't see it written anywhere?
pin measures 24mm dead on
have about 0.01mm which feels OK but would be good to know the limits?

needs some clearance to allow a film of oil.

Anybody know?

thanks

this post ( air cooled but similar) suggests wear limit of (.0004-.0008") or 0.01-0.02mm

So I will have a better measure but not sure I want to put back anything near it's wear limit.
