Connecting Rod
• The VT 275 engine uses fractured
connecting rods. Do not alter the fractured
mating surface of the rod or cap. Any
alteration of the surface will result in severe
engine damage. If the fracture surface is
damaged by dropping the rod or by
tightening the wrong cap to a rod, the
connecting rod must be discarded.
