Yamaha TX500 - Reunite Engine Cases

I (Graham) worked on the engine with Jack and between us we were able to re-unite the two halves of the crank case. The only issue we faced was working out the correct torque wrench settings for the 17mm nuts that secure the crankcase from underneath around the crankshaft. Despite spending lot of time searching through the manuals that we have for it, the correct torque settings could not be found. We are still awaiting new piston kits for the engine. At least next time we will be able to refit the generator, starter motor and the components of the clutch etc. etc..
