September 12, 201312 yr Hi Does anyone know how to get the crank shaft out of the clutch side of the engine, is it pressed in or just a push fit like the other side ? Big end bearings have died... Beta rev 3 2001.... 200cc Thanks Phil.
September 12, 201312 yr undoe the nut on the end poss use impact gun and remove the drive then remove crank poss plastic mallet or press out shouldnt be too tight ,,, what you been trying to run it on swamp water
September 13, 201312 yr Author Thanks, yeah its a bike someone left in a shed in the rain for a couple of years, just trying to get it going again and yes I think they have dunked it a couple of times before putting it away, it is 12 years old..... So basically the crank should just be in the bearing and should come out , its proper wedged in Thanks for the replies
September 13, 201312 yr The Evo manual shows a pusher/ puller for removing the crank. I was able to make a plate that mounts to the cases. I bolted an existing puller to the plate so it was not that much work. FWIW, the Evo manual is almost an exact match to a 2008 Rev 3. http://www.lewisportusa.com/manuals/beta/Trials%20service%20manuals/2010-2011_evo2t.pdf
