Bit of an update, Epic battles all around!!
Spent a good while and tried a few things to loosen the widely reported LH threaded hand crank bolt on the clutch side..... after taking to my uncles to use a better impact gun, it isn't a reverse thread on the 200 as per the 250/300 nut. Lefty loosey for the 200 both sides.
Another hr trying to split the cases, wasn't happening, then spent a good hr making a splitter still no luck and convinced myself something wasn't right.. found a bolt still in place inside the generator side lol
Always check for yourself!
Bolt out and it fell apart
The 01 and 06 cases mate except for 1 mismatch before the reed area, mismatch is big enough that gasket wouldn't seal it.
but all mounting points align and are the same dia
So the 01 cases will fit the 06 frame.....
Onto the crank.
01 cases/crank uses 6206 ball bearings both sides 28x68x18
06 uses a 6206 on clutch side and NU206 30x62x16 roller on the stator side....
Balls
.... So 01 stator side casing is not compatible with 06 crank.
01 crank is 28mm both sides
06 crank is 30mm stator and 28mm clutch side
Options
Sleeve the case down to 62mm and use the NU206 bearing
Shave the crank to 28mm and use 6206 bearing
Fit a weird ball bearing I managed to find, 30BC07S7N1 C3 30x68x16 and hope it works.
Last option is looking most likely for now depending on availability, cant see any issues with the working of it, roller vs ball bearing any issues?
Cheers
