07 apex mtn 2500 miles blown motor

[sxviper65]

Insurance adjusters check to see if the motor will turn over just a heads up if your really dumb enough to do that after you posted it on here. At least thats what they did with my dads when he wrecked the tunnel on it the adjuster pulled the pull rope to make sure it was still loose

Expensive issue, but hopefully they can get her repaired and back working again. Maybe that sled will even hit the snow again this year!

make sure the oil passages are cleaned thoroughly and the affected main bearing bore is the right size and round !! the main bearings ibelieve come in dfferent sizes od and id so you can match for proper oil clearance !! be thorugh or it will happen again!!!!

Ask the crank dude what happened as these motors don't have crank bearing failure issues. The $700, will it include putting the motor back in? Just asking as when I got all the bearings replaced on my late 02 xc 700 it cost me $400. The install was my responsibility.

Yes very very few naturally asspirated.Main thing is when people running mtns or powder roll them over an oil runs into air box thats how they blow them.Best thing you can do is get the jacobbsen rollover valve to prevent this.

the $700 is only the motor rebuilt..we took it out ourselves and brought it to a friend that does motors..we will be putting it back in.. this is a 4stroke motor little more pricey than a 2smoke motor...the gasket kit alone is around $180. then crank work is around $170 then bearings, then labor... i thought just under $700 was a hell of a deal...

Not bad if you ask me.
