allready requested the day off, so im pumped!!

thanks recon for posting your input, like i said there just gonna clean it up and replace all the seals and measure valves and piston rings and go from there..

/sigh

i think after talking with owner and he and i being on the same page that it made things 110% better yeah trust me i would love to have had my bike back a week ago, but the first week they had my bike they were doing various tests here and there to not have to rip the whole motor apart, like i said i am no where near mechanicaly inclined, and i hate to see fights break out over this on the forums that was by no means my intention at all, i was a disgruntled customer but like i said the owner,shop manager, and pretty the whole store of middletown and i are on the same page, i think they did a good job in not even 2 days having the motor tore apart and now there gonna replace all the seals in the motor pretty much have a new motor..ive said it many times i am impressed that they are making this there #1 ordeal in there shop and so far they have proved great customer service in getting me my bike back, there calling for next weekend since parts take 3-5 business days to get shipped, i appretiate all your guys support in this matter i mean this forum even tho ive only been here a month is like a family to me..and i said it once and i say it 100 more times all i want is to have my bike work like it should and be able to ride and enjoy it...

thanks man there calling for next weekend so im hoping for the best!!

cincy wasnt in it before?

i dont know what bike shops are supposed to look like. they dont have a big shop but its what it is i guess..

i made it a pic thread just for you JRM, so you would post what you posted. thats why i did it..

im going off what i am told "bad oil" meaning the oil in it was not meant for motorcycle. and no it doesnt offend me, ill be the first to admit that i have no idea about anything motorcycle wise..incase you havent noticed this is all new to me...glad i amuse you heres some popcorn

that i dont know they may have done that before i got there...

Thanks man thats what i said...

think they did that for me to see it when i came in...

i am a noob said it yourself and besides these are pictures, so pic thread

what he said...

well there she is all torn apart on middletowns floor...mad props to them for bustin their @ss's looks like either a) motor wasnt broke in correctly b)bad oil who knows but look at the head and valves both sides (inside and out) got crud and grime all over them so im sure thats the source of the problem..there gonna measure the valves and valve seals piston rings but pretty much new everything seal wise and spark plugs...more to come as i find out...

yeah i heard about the scavanger hunts sound like so much fun

i think the motor just wasnt taken care of by previous owner prob didnt do his maintence bad oil who knows maybe didnt break it in im jsut glad its getting fixed and hope everything goes well in the other tests they got to run tomorrow

Well heres the picks direct out of Middletowns garage... Sat back there with Russ, Aaron the tech working on it and the parts manager. And all I can say is that out of everything we saw in that motor theres nothing wrong with the actual parts them selves..however as you can see in the head that the valves have gunk and grime over them and on the inside looking into the head you can see the same on the opposite side as well... So there gonna check the valves themselves tomorrow,the measure the piston rings..but as it sits now getting all new seals, head gasket plugs you name it its getting replaced...I want to thank Middletown for bustin there ass and tearin her down and if everything goes well I should have her back to normal next weekend as long as parts arent on back order and what not!!!

i know middletown has a left over 08' you might be able to pick up its yellow and black with silver not 100% for sure.. im heading up there in a bit to look at my tore down motor...

hmm good idea...

well for the summer i mean lol

any idea when school lets out?
