The connecting rods are a crucial component in any engine, as they are responsible for transmitting the linear movement of the piston to the crankshaft, converting it into a rotary motion that ultimately drives the motorcycle.

A connecting rod in good condition is essential to ensure the performance, balance, and durability of the engine, preventing vibrations, noises, or breakages that may cause serious damage to the crankshaft assembly.

The connecting rod kits include everything necessary to carry out the repair of the crankshaft, thereby restoring its optimum operation.

These kits usually include the connecting rod, wrist pin, needle bearing, washers, and pins, all ready to replace the damaged connecting rod of the crankshaft. 

Types and materials of connecting rods

Depending on the type of engine and its use, connecting rods may be made in different materials and configurations:

  • Forged steel: used in stock engines and standard builds, with an excellent balance of strength and durability.
  • Aluminum or light alloys: used in racing engines due to their low weight and reduced inertia for improved engine response.
  • Machined or reinforced connecting rods: withstand higher rev ranges and extreme loads, ideal for high-performance engines.

At Motoscoot, we offer both individual connecting rods and complete kits for the proper repair of the crankshaft, compatible with a wide range of scooters, motorcycles, and ATVs.
