just be carefull when buying used cranks, just becuase it spins freely doesn't mean its good.

Talk to Tim. He can make you some new ones.

Just curious, you said your rod was worn out. What about the crank pin? I haven't heard of the rods wearing out unless the bearing was eating it.

Brad at BlackWidow has the complete crank, rod, with the z400 bearings for something like $385.

Now for the bad news, he is closed until Monday. The nerve of some people taking a one week vacation. He should of made it two!

I sold an 02 Blaze in december that had about 1000 hours on it and the motor had never been touched. The owner (a member on here) is still riding it today with no problems.
