From the beginning I was a quad rider

There was the quad needing rebuilt at the time so I purchase a bike to try

Loved it more than the big bore 500 and wide front end of the quad so it became the bastard child and started collecting dust

I had the bike to devote my time to. the moto track

Vacation after action this bike has been ol miss reliable.  Never did a thing other than change the oil and pour the coals to her. 

Yesterday she had enough.   I was doing some knarly cookies in the river bed of course throwing a rooster tail at the boy who was watching dad get covered in mud.  The rpm was high and the joy was higher!   Than all of a sudden the fun stopped, the motor stopped and the wallet instantly became empty$$$$ I tried the kickstarter with hopes on to be smashed!

The motor carnage.  Started tear down at 9:30am and finish by 10:30 it doesn't look good

Valve cover removed


The first sign is metal chunks

Than scared intake cam

Broken valves are never good

Missing valves that got beat to hell on top of the piston, good thing I kept the throttle pegged right?


Looks like I will have a bike that looked like he empty gram of the quad here soon

If anyone has connections for a 2006 head assembly? Let me know
