ACL Kawasaki ZX-12R .25 Conrod Bearing Set

ACL has been making engine bearings for decades, and this conrod bearing set for your 2000-2005 Kawasaki ZX1200 Ninja ZX-12R is one of their staples. These bearings are crucial for the proper functioning of your engine's crankshaft and connecting rods, ensuring smooth rotation and reducing friction. When it's time to rebuild or refresh your engine, using a well-built set like this from ACL is a smart move.

This particular set is undersized by .25mm, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been ground down during a previous rebuild or due to wear. Using the correct undersize bearing ensures that the clearance between the rod and the crank is within the manufacturer's specifications, which is vital for oil pressure and bearing longevity. ACL uses a tri-metal overlay on these bearings, which is a common and effective material for high-performance applications, offering good embeddability and a strong overlay for durability.

When you're installing these bearings, make sure to follow the manufacturer's torque specifications and use a quality assembly lube. Proper installation is key to getting the most out of these well-made components and ensuring your engine runs reliably.
