Sounds good to me, unless you find some major carnage in the bottom end
I dont believe so, if there was i think i would see worse damage to the bottom of the piston! so i think thats all i will be fixing in that list!Sounds good to me, unless you find some major carnage in the bottom end
Was thinking that too :/ a little air should clean it outthat oil filter is going to put the cost of the rebuild over the top
I hope you are not paying for thisHere is a update, i have not worked on it due to not having a flywheel puller, i was about to get one last night so now i will be able to move forward and split the case. I asked the shop what causes a connecting rod bearing to go and he said most likely due to worn out piston and other parts. So like you guys have said its not my fault...
He said to fix the bearing you need to press in and out the rod from the crank, they quoted $130 to do the work if i bring them the crank assembly. So $130 in labor, about $130 for a connecting rod and bearing. So i see what you mean it will be cheaper to get a hot rods crank assembly off ebay for under $200.
So right now here is my parts list....
1. Piston + Rings
2. oil filter and strainer?
3. Gasket kit
4. Crank Assembly
5. spark plug
Hopefully nothing else it damage...
same here....... but i am at that point to just suck it up, and get it over with, learn my lesson, no one is your true friend. but before i pay anything i am talking to him and being like this is what needs to be done. and go from there.I hope you are not paying for this

this quote above is enough to say you should be contributing something. I understand that you are doing the work and it was really not your fault that it seized, but you should at least help with some of the cost. Is your neighbor giving you grief for it seizing and telling you that you need to pay for it? Sounds like you are getting the break down and will present that to him before you move on. What has been his reaction so far?i seized my neighbors bike which i borrowed.
so far his reaction is you need to learn a lesson, if you borrow something and it breaks you fix it. he does not believe me from what i can tell that i was only one the track for under 5 mins, even though i told him i even got my money back from the track. he is a Master Chief in the navy so he is the type to yell and be strict over things and you cant really get a reading on it. i did get one conv in with him, and he said if there is anything else i would replace to replace it and tell him what it cost, so i not 100% on what he is thinking. when i get a list together and what not i will present it to him and go from there as i dont think it will be a good idea to talk to him without a hard number of what the parts will cost.this quote above is enough to say you should be contributing something.

I split the case finally and everything looks good except for the crank...
just ordered the new crank assembly, piston, rings, gasket kit, spark plug, oil filter... should be here by Friday. Will be cleaning parts and case of all the medal shavings. Then will be posting back here when parts arrive and get to put the sucker back together!
On the left hand case there should be a small screen filter that sits underneath the flywheel, don't forget to clean it out
