Crankshaft Stage6 R/T connecting rod 85mm Piaggio Zip
Description
Stage6 R/T high-end crankshaft with 85mm connecting rod
Stage6 R/T crankshaft with 85mm connecting rod for Piaggio / Gilera / Aprilia / Derbi / Vespa 50cc, high-end crankshaft for racing use.
Strengths Stage6 R/T racing crankshaft
Elaborately balanced high-end racing full-flange crankshaft with light alloy inserts.
The tuning crankshaft is characterized by precise manufacturing and adherence to tight tolerances. The CNC-milled connecting rod is extremely resistant and offers maximum strength for use in racing engines, while at the same time optimizing the flow characteristics.
The very precise balancing via light metal inserts prevents strong vibrations and ensures optimally smooth engine running. The crankpin measures 18mm instead of 16mm, which naturally increases durability. It goes without saying that the needle bearing supplied is also of the highest quality.
Compatibility and installation of the S6 racing shaft
The Stage6 R/T crankshaft with 85mm connecting rod can only be used with cylinders that are designed for use with an 85mm connecting rod. The perfect complement is the Stage6 R/T 70cc cylinder for Piaggio.
If you ride a cylinder with 80mm original connecting rod, the Stage6 5mm cylinder spacer must be used. The spacer is simply used as an additional base gasket and the original stud bolts are replaced by longer ones.
Plug & Play installation - the Stage6 R/T shaft can be installed without any further modifications, without the need to mill the engine case. We recommend using a set of new crankshaft bearings.

How to change a crankshaft?
The crankshaft is one of the main components of the engine and is responsible for the smooth operation of motorcycle, scooter and moped, whether with two-stroke or four-stroke engine. The longevity of the engine depends not only on the proper condition of the crankshaft, but also on the fact that it is properly mounted.
For a correct installation of the crankshaft, we recommend our tutorial: Crankshaft disassembly and assembly.
How can I tell if my crankshaft is Damaged?
A broken crankshaft causes metallic noises, unusual vibrations, leaking oil seals and drastically reduces the performance of the two-wheeler. In any case, the vehicle must be stopped immediately to prevent the damage from getting worse.
Please note that whenever the crankshaft is changed and serviced, you'll have to install new crankshaft bearings.

Tuning Level: High End racing
We categorize our products into different performance levels Original, Sport, Racing and High End , so that our customers can choose the right parts for their setup. It is really important to combine parts that belong to the same tuning level, this is especially true for cylinders, crankshafts and exhausts.
High End Racing products are exclusively designed for racing and should only be handled by tuning pros with the appropriate technical know-how. High-end racing parts often require modifications or machining of certain elements to accommodate the often larger components (larger crank webs, larger intake, etc.). Whether you stick with 50cc or increase the displacement, high-end racing parts offer much higher performance than the original parts and are the most powerful tuning parts.
Note: To ensure the reliability of the engine, it is important that the parts are compatible and that you do regular maintenance on your two-wheeler.
