    Welding a crank

    Guy twisted a crank on an 82 1100 and he wants me to rebuild the engine. I advised him to have the replacement crank welded. Who here does this work or where can he send the crank to be welded?? Thanks.

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      For roller bearing cranks, the ONLY places I will send one is to John Pearson in Ohio, Stan Gardner in Maine, or Bob Mosher in Florida. I wouldn't ask Falicon what time of day it is!

        Yes , John Pearson. Never an issue with a Pearson built crank. Awesome guy and a good friend of mine. Straight cut gears, trueing or welding he IS the MAN ! I Just dont trust anyone else.
