ive got my feelers out as well in the R6 forum just for some more advice if we can get it...
-
wow gixxie and recon your guys sound like scientists crankin away at a bike motor. yeah gixxie thanks a ton man for all the help it was great to have met you and dave and your girl and man trust with all the help your doin for me with this bike i def owe ya when u have time and we both arent working we can play scientists all we want lol dont want you to have to stop from your projects for me lol
-
well after meeting up with gixxie and dave, we went back to gixxies house and started the tear down process. what we know so far is the bike i not losing power, seems to have good compression, now we think it might be valve seals. there was alot of oil in atleast 2 out of 4 of them. and we also found out someone has been in that motor before. so the bike is on its way to being torn down more soon as gixxie gets ahold of some r6 guys. i said hell with it and just left it there. i want to thank gixxie for helping someone he barely knows and bob for runnin me home lol. so its in the works guys thanks again for all the tips, its just a puzzle atm that just will take a lil time to solve.:grin:
-
yeah thats why im meeting up with gixxie later and he wants to see my bike and check it out and see what wrong with it himself, hes more than welcome to ride it and do what he has to do seems as long as you dont high rom it the oil stays in the motor,
-
ill be out to meet up with dr. brandon later around 1-2ish
-
hmm its something worth making some phone calls tomorrow about. however i dont even want to know what a lawyer cost. As fro ruebens verdict on the bike i just gave him the symptons and told him all the stuff we did today and still having problems, i mean unless its something stupid its kinda obvious the bike: smokes whiteish/blueish tint, and burns oil like no tomorrow *at high RPMS only tho*
-
sweet thanks a ton man, and thanks for helpin me out its very appretiated. i will txt you around 1ish or so..
-

gixxie750 sent you a pm. and thanks guys for spreadin the word please every rider you come across steer them clear of this place.

well not by a dealer no, but we did what rueben suggested took the lowers off cleaned and looked for leaks changed oil and filter check all bolts and everyting we could visualy see checked air filter and plugs the air filter wasnt really dirty but if you rubbed ur fingers acrossed it unless they have a coating on them felt oily, plugs looked like plugs at 7k miles, then we bolted back up and he followed me and had me take it to 13-14k on a stretch of road i didnt even need him i looked in my rearview mirror and it looked like i created a nice thick fog of white/blueish tint smoke. and i mean thick very very bad. again only at 12k rpms and higher so we switched i hopped on his bike and sure enough nothing but smoke. got her back on lvl ground at the house checked oil after letting her sit for bout 30 min and dipstick read bone dry. and the smoke smelled like burnt oil for sure. so we came to conclusion either piston rings fried or valve problems. and rusty thanks man for the advice it just opens more options for me.

if i had full coverage might be able to get away with that but i have a lien on it and min coverage casue the bank im goin thru says since the bike is 3 years old dont need full coverage hell they didnt even ask for proof of insurance but i got it anyway
-
most def agree... as for the whole run the biek thru the showroom window thats very tempting my brother suggested driving it right in to the showroom and piping all the burnt oil smoke in the showroom and yell "this dealerhsip fucks you in the ass"
-
i wish this would work but i have talked to a couple people and there telling me i signed knowing the bike was "as is" so theres nothing i can do about it said its a waste of money... im gonna drive up to middletown tomorrow and have a word with the manager in person dont expect anything out of it but maybe theres tons of customers in there i can scare away while i speak my peace or maybe im jsut
-
thanks alot guys for all the input and offers to help me out, so far i talked to rueben at 35motorsports and he does have an 06 engine with 900 miles on it wants 1500 for it and 350 to swap my motor and instal that one not bad price. but its gonna be really hard to come up with that kinda loot..but he was the first to call he sounds like a great guy and knows his stuff..and by you all recomending him thats a bonus..if i cant find something local and cheaper then i guess rueben will be my go to guy. just wish he wasnt 2.5 hours away..
-
I cant stress this enough, I just found out today that my motor is pretty much done and these stupid fucking pricks are nothing but lying sacks of shit. Now unless I come up with 1700ish (talked to Rueben at 35motorsports) Im done for the season. I have called Middletown they dont seem to care they had to have known this bike was a lemon and obviously the previous owner ragged the piss out of it. So again STAY AWAY FROM MIDDLETOWN CYCLE!

Well not good, we tore her down changed oil, checked air filter cleaned underneeth cant find where it did those few leak spots. hasnt leaked since then we took it on a test run about 5-10 miles and 14k rpm and up spewed out thick white and lil blue tint smoke and i mean so bad i could see it clear as day in the rearview mirror. my buddy was following behind me and said it wasnt good. Got her back let her sit bout 30 min check the oil and there was nothing on the dipstick. so i pbrought her home parked her in the back of the garage and i guess im done for the season casue on the quotes ive gotten from different places and from what people are telling me, piston rings, head gasket vavles who knows is gonna cost way more than i have. ive put every last dollar ive had in this bike from down payment to oil, and other parts, so ill still hang around the forums but wont be able to go ridin with any of yall. seems all the local "trustworthy dealerships" are too busy anyway and said with my problems there is no way they can fit me in this season even if i had the $$...
-
ouch...but yeah the massive shift in weather patterns makes alot of people sick to. ive been blessed and not caught anything this season *knocks on wood dollface i see your from marysville i got some friends out there i lived out in ostrander for a long time when i was younger marysville was closest city to us lol. i still have some friends out that way. those where the days..
