oem 350x connecting rod needed

[bigdaddyvw185]

I have dealt with this dealer when i was searching for a 300 kit piston, and they ended up having one sitting on the shelf. I looked up on their website for a 86 350X and it seems that they may have one in stock, (at least it does not say "please call for a price" next to it). Give them a call may be with any luck they have one.

Talked to Greg at CWR today, he had called to tell me that my parts are on the way back. While I had him on the phone, I asked him about the quality of the Vesrah rods. He told me that they are equal to OEM rods, and that Vesrah makes many of the rods, valves, valve seals, gaskets, etc... for the manufactures. So, that OEM Honda rod may have been made by Vesrah, for Honda. In all the instances that Vesrah has made a rod for a mfg's particular bike, the mfg will require the bike to be in production for X number of years before Vesrah can market their rod under their name.

Greg told me that he has used them on the 350x, and not just for a stock rebuild either. Says that he has used them for stroker cranks as well. Has never had an issue with them. He also went on to say, that the Vesrah crank pins press in the crank webs really nice like the OEM pins do, and the bearings have always been good and tight with nice fitment.

Just a little more info I thought all would appreciate.

could i put the vesrah rod on a new oem honda bearing and pin ?

Geez, I hate to speculate; However, with you having the pin and all the bearings I think you may be 100% AOK.

Worst case, we all learn something; So, I wish you the best and keep us advised or we won't know anymore that what you have learned and or shared.....
