ok i was out yesterday stunting with some people and i ride a stand up too far and too fast..i went off the parking lot and dumped the bike in mud and i guess rocks..i get the bike up fine and it starts after a few seconds..the bike ran fine after i got it cleaned off and i rode it home fine...but today i started it and noticed it was making a little bit of a funny sound..well i let it warm up and when i came back out i noticed it was leaking oil somewhere from the left side of the motor..and i drained all the oil about i think about a quart came out im not sure...WTF DO I DO? find a new motor or what? banghead banghead banghead banghead banghead

check your alternator cover and the gasket

DoodleF4i

as i look closer i see it may be coming from the side of the transmission,is this a cover or is it the transmission case?

if you dont have a cage on your bike you may have just cracked your stator casing. As long as your bike was still running fine then all you need to do is take it off and either jb weld it or get a new one. Replace the gasket and put new oil in it.

DoodleF4i

well..im pissed off,cold and its about to rain ill just strip more bolts if i go out there again..ill just wait til tomorrow and see whats up..

NovaMan

Thats a shitty deal man, sorry to hear it my CC still leaks. But i check the oil everytime befor i ride. I check the oil and it hasnt been even below the fill line yet with probably 4 hours of riding. Just get alittle oil on the shoe when im riding and thats my only issue heh.

So when you gettin a cage

Your motor was probably just making noises cause it was low on oil. I doubt its messed up though. Just find the leak, JB weld, and add oil you'll probably good to go.

DoodleF4i

oh,and i also stripped the oil drain bolt,i was in a hurry to see what the hell was leaking so when i drained the oil i spun the bolt the wrong way,now when i tighten it all the way up it just spins....stupid.....****!!!

righty tighty : lefty loosy

DoodleF4i

will JB weld work on the crack and the bolt? If not im saying **** it and buying a motor

NovaMan

im sure JB weld will fix the crack if you do it from both sides, and maybe with the bolt issue just buy a slightly bigger plug? i know its been done on cars haha.

DoodleF4i

screw it..im dropping the motor out..the the transmission is messed up anyway..if i can get it rebuilt cheaper than a used motor off ebay ill go that route..anyone know how much a motor and tranny rebuild would be?

HurricaneF2

hey, ill fix your **** for half the price of a new motor as long as you dont try to do any more work on it

DoodleF4i

seriously? cuz everytime i go out there i **** something up heh...

catach42

id say around 2gs

DoodleF4i

**** 2g's i only paid 3g's for the whole bike

HurricaneF2

yeah, you gotta buy the parts, im about broke now anyway. pm me if you wanna work somethin out

DoodleF4i

well..would you want the motor or the whole bike to work on? if you can work on it,and figure out the parts it needs then ill buy them and pay you..or however you'd want to do it

dude, just get a new stator cover for like $50 and take the bike to a machine shop and have them re-tap the threads in your drain plug........it will only cost a few bucks and take a few minutes. I would say $20 or so (just a guess). I stripped a motor mount bolt in a bike before and just had it re-tapped and it was about that and only took a couple minutes. You can also buy a kit to do it yourself but I don't strip that many bolts to justify buying it just paid the money and let someone that knew what they were doing take care of it.

if your motor really is screwed just ride it till it blows after you fix it............it might not even be damaged so why replace it if you dont have to

stanger92

btw I seriously doubt a 7r motor would cost 2 grand.........i'd say more like 1k
