Hi guys, I have a 98 srx 600 with only 800 miles. Bought it last year, I have read that the 98's have a defective crank. Was there a recall or fix that would have been done on the sled? I can't get a hold of the previous owner.

The sled is completely stock, and I have been thinking of upgrading the track but don't want to jeapordize any components in the engine if they are inherintly weak? Would a new track put more pressure on the crank?

Thanks for the help.
 
TAKE THE CHASSIS NUMBER THATS ON SIDE OF YOUR SLED TO A YAMAHA DEALER. THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO TELL YA IF THIS WAS DONE THROUGH THE CRANKSHAFT UPDATE PROGRAM. NOW CHANGEING TRACKS WON,T HURT, BUT STUDS MIGHT. 3:16 (yammie tony)
 
Wow only 800 huh? probably wasnt updated yet, like tony said have your vin checked and update the crank for sure before studs, let us know!
