ticktock Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I bought a 450r motor that as described was. 502 big bore stroker ported head running condition 1100$ + the ride 167$. I got a motor that would not start. Failed lead down timed incorrectly. Was told by seller to change heads. Piston in backwards. Valve strike on piston. Piston wrist pin grooved and totally shot. Cylinder walls grooved to the shape of the piston!! Stroker HR crank is stock stroke lol. It's going back to him. Did this guy think I was an idiot? Wtf is wrong with people?

troyzstang Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Sorry to hear about your misfortune Adam. Can I assume you're in contact with the Seller. Is he working with you to make it right? On another subject. How's the banshee coming along? What about the 250R. Man you have to many toys.

ticktock Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Ya, sorry that was a bad post! I typed all that shit in my truck pissed off this morning. Well worked with the seller, I am getting 500 dollars returned. I have a good stock head, cam, crank, piston, cylinder. So basically I bought a complete base for 600 with expensive shipping!. Troy, I have been so busy I have not had time to work on them : ) I have been studying at school, trying to get things good there. I have been working on this during my lunch breaks, so 45 - and hour and half a day. Tomorrow I should have it running if I get out of school early. It will take an hour to do the parts swap and another hour to put it in the bike again. So I need 3 hours with it lol. Banshee I am ready to put that back together. It will take me about 3 hours to get it running 250R I have all the parts I needed now. Everything is in the garage, pressed in all the motor bearings and the crank, just need to assemble - 10 hours for motor and complete bike. Im riding something Saturday - Are you and Bridget interested? Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troyzstang Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I don't think so Sorry. My bike is also in pieces now. I'm taking it all the way down to freshen things up a little. Talk to you Later Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
