Crankcase
The crankcase is made from Alusil for markets where the fuel contains a high sulphur content. The cylinder barrels
have a nickel dispersion coating (Nikasil), and are finished by polishing only.
An adaptor plate for the feed and return flexible pipes to the oil filter assembly is fitted to the left side of the crankcase.
A water drain plug is located at the lower LH rear corner to drain coolant from the crankcase.
