The crankshaft assembly of a motorcycle is a rotating machine that converts the linear motion of the pistons into rotational motion, which powers the engine. The crankshaft also balances the forces acting on the engine.
Early motorcycles had five-piece crankshafts. There were two main shafts, a crankpin, and two flywheels – five pieces. The main shafts fit into the flywheels with tapers and nuts, and the same thing went for the crankpins.
The connecting rod was a one-piece affair. You attached the bearings to the crankpin, slid the rod onto the bearings, put a second flywheel on the end of the pin, put the tapers and nuts on, lined it up with hammers and dial gauges, and you had a crankshaft.
As you can imagine, assembling a crankshaft from all those pieces meant there were at least as many failure modes. Very early on there was a desire to simplify matters by making a one-piece crankshaft and separating the connecting rod into two pieces.
