Good To Know

Q: Does this kit service both rods? A: Connecting rod kits for the Explorer 650 are commonly supplied as matched sets so both rods share the same balance and wear characteristics. Confirm the contents listing before ordering.

Q: Can I install this without splitting the cases? A: Connecting rod replacement requires splitting the crankcase and pressing the crankshaft apart. This job is best handled by a shop with the right press and alignment tools.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
