Yes i agree with the previous answer we used to do a lot of 2 stroke motorcycle engines and always took the cranks to be done at an engineering firm who have got the right equipment.

Don't try to split the flywheels Barry - they are pressed together and finely balanced. If you want to have it reconditioned send it to a specialist - I use a firm in Kegworth but so sorry I can't remember the name!!
