Hi guys, Your customer support here in the USA is getting better. I have been running RB motors now for what will be my third year. I have a brand new RB crankshaft that came with some other RB parts, but the tag has been removed. This crank is almost identical to p/n 01700-467. Everything is the same dimensionally except that there is a small oil groove about 2mm away from the shoulder where the front bearing rides. Also if you look at the crank from the end where the crank pin is located, on the 01700-467, the left of the pin, the counterweight looks like it has piece taken out ( it's cast of coarse), but on the crankshaft that I cannot identify, both the left and the right of the pin have been removed (part of the casting of coarse) which makes the weight come to a point right at the crank pin.
I would really appreciate your help in getting the correct part number for this crank so I can make use of it. If you have somewhere I can send pictures I would be glad to see if you can help me that way.
Thanks for the great motors. The S7 is my favorite ever.

All I can propose is a link to our website in the USA when you can see the parts listing of what you are looking for, if you click on the right square you will see a picture which is related to the part#

Yes, those are very helpful. This looks like the 01700-468/RE crank, but the picture is at a bad angle to tell if has the other side of the crank removed. You wouldn't have a picture of that crank taken from the crankpin end would you? What would the differences be from the rody crank to the standard crank? Thanks again for all your help.

I didn't see anything refering to the x12. Could this be a part for that? I have gone through every picture that I could find on RB crankshafts and as far as pictures go, part number 1700-067/R looks just like the crank I have except there are no hand modifications. But then if you go to p/n 1700-067, it doesn't show the oil groove by the front bearing and it doesn't have the part on the other side of the pin removed. How accurate are these pictures? What other options are there?
Once again, thanks for your time.
