i'm rebuilding a 86 R for buddy of mine. crank's no good and it'll need a top end as well. better to go with hot rods crank or OEM honda? cyl is at 67.5mm i'm pretty sure. also is there any good place to download a service manual? and where's the best place to buy parts?
thanks guys.

i would say OEM crank. buddies who race motocross say the hot rods crank cant handle the punishment. i have one in my bike now for about 25 hours and it seems fine. i am a trail rider so don't beat it too bad. next time i will get a OEM for piece of mind. (never know when a crank will fail)
