Cranky

[yamaslut]

Hehee....I am just glad that it was a dumb riding maneuver that took out the engine, instead of a dumb motor assembly maneuver.

no ********.... that hurts worse bro...

 

[WaveDemon]

Matt will take him...

I agree. I couldn't afford to keep up with him.

 

[Matt_E]

Meh...this is "only" number three.
Number one seized due to a dumbass cooling routing
Number two sucked a screw through the jug
Number three (now) hydrolocked.

That's not too bad.

I"m only in 2 complete motors and a few top ends/domes. I'm still using the second motor (well, I will when I put the latest top end in). the near stock back up motor just works to well to take out.

 

[Matt_E]

Now see....I bet I spent less than that. I bored & got pistons the first time, complete topend the second, and now it's crank (75 bucks!!!), hone & rings.

BTW, that's the damage for this round. One crank, and the cyl needs honed, and new rings.

I'm comming up sunday to ride matanzas, assmunch... you homos rding???

well after an electrical nightmare I notice I had a blown crank seal, replaced that (not expencive but a lot of work) and when to daytona. There I sucked up some salt water, thinking that I still had CDI issues I left it alone and locked it up solid.

motor one - done.


I bought gimp rocks ported 800cc 61x. he told me to bump up the compression. I bumped it up to 180 psi and fried the pistons and domes.

top end one - done.

Since I'm lazy I cleaned the motor up as best I could without splitting the cases. I missed a big piece of ring which bounced around a while and trashed another piston and dome.

Top end two - done.

I put in the 3rd top end and did a pressure check found a leak in the rear main seal. while tearing appart the motor for another rebuild I broke the coupler 3 times.

The motor is sitting in my office partially disassembled right now and has been for a month or two.

Uh yeah...speaking of which, where is my spare topend?:arms:

 

[Matt_E]

I should have a crank by tomorrow (Thanks Phill!), and rings and a base gasket.
Cylinder honing will be done by the end of today.

 

[SUPERJET-113]

I have a crank that looks just like that Matt. About 6 years, one day I was doing multiple bulldogs and it just died. Sucked in just enough water to get on top of the piston and bam, bent connecting rod..
I've never seen a battery do that, only while running.

Yeppers.

Going from the SXI with a stock hood to the SJ with the 247 hood. I could not beleive the difference.

I have almost sunk the SXI in much smaller surf.

The new hood pretty much let no water in the hull the whole time I was riding it. I was very impressed.

you super jet people with all your fancy hoods make me sick.
