    Has anybody ever cross referenced CR250 connecting rod dimensions which may match other vintage rods?

    I need to get the dimensions of the 1978 (2065) and 1981 (2079) rods and see if I can find an existing wiesco, carrillo, ect rod.

    I need big end bore, little end bore, BE and LE widths. Plus the eye to eye. This can be measured by dividing BE and LE bores by half. And adding the distance between the the the two bores at their closest points.

    So If anyone has one of these rods I could do the checking to see if there is any options available.

    Also, if anyone wants me to research their particular rod, I can do that if you send me your own rod dimesions.

    I would appreciate any help.

    I believe Huskydogg has some NOS rods. PM him on here if he doesn't chime in. I believe there is a KTM rod that is very close when I looked a few years ago. I found a Kawi rod to replace the one in my 500.
