The crank is a sil redone with a jap big end bearing. It is shimmed.the reason I asked the question is because as hendry said I too thought the spacing between the piston and the small end was around 25mm and when I have the scooter started there's a knocking noise which I think sounds like piston s...

Stripped the top end back down and shimmed the piston. Now got around 1mm play. I am a bit happier with this unless anyone knows any different.

How much play is acceptable on the side to side off the Small end bearing. I fitted one of those cheap186 kits to my brothers scooter and the piston seems to me to have too much play from side to side on the grudgeon pin. Is the answer to fit piston shims or a wider small end bearing? Thanks graeme
