Subject: RE: Rod Oil Holes

Since some rods have no oil holes (like my Eldo's) I think it's best to
use the machined flat, and make sure they both are on the side that
faces the right cylinder (away from the dipstick).

Did you mark which rod was which?

Thanks Paul,
So it sounds like I just line both of the rods up so the hole on the big

end is facing right (right side when sitting astride the bike). I
suppose this is to make sure that oil is thrown up into the rod as the
engine rotates CCW (again aft looking forward).

This list is the best !!!!

It looks like Guzziology says the following: "ignoring any reference to

and down and just making sure the holes as well as the flats along one
rod
bolt hole are on the side closest to the right cylinder." This can be
found
on page 5-32 if you have Guzziology.
