It might not be a blown motor. If it just died and now won't even turn over, I'd say it's electrical. Do you have power? Guages light up when turn the key on? Can you hear the injectors being primed?
Also, please explain how she's been riding lately an what you'd been doing prior to it stopping/ seizng. hear any ticking noises? Any codes? Was their coolant draining out anywhere?
Provided there was ample oil in the crank/ reservior and enough coolant in the sled, they rarely just seize up and die at 2,500 miles.
On the topic of codes, has the sled been throwong any codes at you lately? Does it flash any now?

Sad to say it, but from what I seen today with your sled I think you may of hydrolock it. Looks like the motor is no good.

A lot of oil in the air box. The motor takes it in and stop the motor.
Must be more to this story. Why is there a bunch of oil in an airbox, and why did the engine take a big gulp and lock up??? Why would insurance be involved in a mechanical???

From what yamaha told him is the top end looks good and so does the top of pistons.. They think a bottom end bearing locked up..either way it sucks and shouldnt have happend at 2500 miles rolled over or not...i have rolled my attak way worse and longer than he ever has and i have 6500 miles on mine..and his sled hasnt been over at all this season..
