Sounds good guys.  Thank you for the info. 

What's the best way to check the crank bearings and seals in a home shop with limited tools?  Is it possible? I've rebuilt the top end on my Honda 250r a few times in the past, but I have no experience with rebuilding the bottom end.  Just by lifting up on the rod there is no up and down play in the rod or crank that I can perceive by hand.  I know that is very imprecise and probably useless when trying to evaluate the crank bearings, but I'm not sure how else to check it.  Any recs on how to do it with limited tools and experience?  Thanks again
