Motor broken in half

[GeorgesBlazah]

For some reason today my motor was running like crap. It would cut out at random times and then come back in with gobs of power. Most of the time that meant wheelie time...well this wheelie took its toll on the motor. The motor was only 2 months old :bang:

Ill let the pictures do the talking.

at least iam not the only one w/ bad engines problems ( I feel ya man )

Do u think a new crankcase would be all u need ???? sorry man that sucks

what do u think caused the problem axail might replace it u never know

[GeorgesBlazah]

Im thinking there may have been a crack in it somehwere beforehand. Cause sometimes it would act weird and I could never trace it down. I guess I can try calling them, but I dont think they will replace it.

There's been some serious motor carnage lately. That has to be under warranty.........right? Did it just snap all of a sudden or what?

[GeorgesBlazah]

When it flipped on tis roof is when it broke like that.

[Jeremy]

It wouldn't hurt to try that looks and sounds like a manf.. defect

[Xjeepguy]

That was no defect, just look at the head. Anytime you take a hit like that on the cooling head, you can count on crankcase damage. The crack may have been there from a previous run, that is why it wouldnt hold a tune.

[Jeremy]

If thats the case mine held up rather well I gess only haveing a crack... most of the hit was broken by the engine plate00witch broke, and the motor mount that craked in about 4 peices

[samisavage]

It all comes down to luck. Believe it or not, I have seen them worse than this one. I saw a rossi that looked like a pile of aluminum chunks lol. All from not running a body on a savage.

[[hs] darkshine]

bloody hell u made some job of that!!

never known you old boys from up north to be understated....that was a bit of an understatement!! lol, j/k! :bang:

[Speedster]

i think that that's why they added the optional nylon roll bar for over the engine, would most likely help stop that from happening. that's bad stuff right there. weird that there would be 2 cases of a similar incident in that short a period of time.

[Jeremy]

nope still cracked my block w/ it just allways run a body that is what I learned

[benny]

damn that has gotta suck how did u do that

[Shaun]

wow never had a engine do that before! good work by the way!! and my sympathy as well!!

[GeorgesBlazah]

Ah the memories..

[Mondragon]

sounds like if it was running weard like that it must have had a crack. heating and cooling maken it run eather good or bad. On any account owch that sucks
