Two days out on the the bike since getting it tagged & the bottom end sounds like crap .. rod bearing Im guessing . SOOO BUMMED!!! Engine seemed great when I bought it .. barley put 30 miles on her & she started knocking .
I don't have time to fix her myself nor do I really have the skills to do a bottom end rebuild ( did it twice on a 900rr & the engine went up only weeks after both times ) .. But I really am trying to get on the road .. bought her as something fun & nostalgic to get out on & release some stress ...lol
Do I pay to have it rebuilt .. or find another Engine ???? If I go with another Engine should I try & make something newer work in this Amen frame ??
Anyone know this bike??? I think it was built in the Philly area .. the guy I bought it from Didn't ride it or tag it & didn't seem to no shit about her ..... I pretty much cleaned her up a bit ..Changed the oil ,cam chain , & some other BS.. then lost all the decals/crosses & sprayed her Black . Just in time for her to sh!t on me !! ..lol
