Re: Rebuild Done

These are the links. For some reason blogger pics can't be viewed by everybody (kind of weird). A few of them are of the motor showing all the cracked casings and a huge gaping whole with the crank exposed. The other of it is just a pic of me breaking it in. The rebuild cost......haven't added it all up but my guess would be around $2000 give or take.

The bottom end is noticably better after the rebuild now too. There is a an extra kick at the bottom of the poweband (not that that is a real problem on a CRF450R lol). Yeah I ran it once and did the 15 min ride, let it cool down and repeat a few times. Took it back and changed the oil agian after breaking in the new piston and cylinder, ect. We have actually gone out another time after that to the same enduro track and it was a BLAST! Out of all the places I have ever been there is nothing like this place.
