Wonder if bad oiling from a bad rod oil jet that caused rear cylinder/ piston scoring?

Do they do a new engine for a replacement or a re-manned "new" engine like Ford does?

Before the mechanic even tore into her he was talking engine replacement. . .he said he's only heard one other bike that sounded that bad and they replaced that engine. I don't know how it will go, but my friend who recommended this guy has the utmost confidence in him. I'll be asking questions on Monday.

That sucks about your bike motor. Go for a new motor...be firm, and don't comprise.

Damn, T!

I hope they do replace the motor for you. You want to insist on it.

Hope they get it worked out quickly.

Sorry to hear this Ma'am.
Sounds like you got the right guy though.
Felix will be all better soon.
Stand your ground and demand a new motor!

Sorry to hear. But the good part is they found it while still under warranty. They might not be able to find the cause, but they should try to avoid happening again.
