Best thing would be to get a new "old" motor.

Would be VERY helpful to have a pic of the broken part, especially a close up of where the break is.

I'm new to this forum.. I have a Viper LTX LE 2016 MPI turbo and yesterday after 93 km 4.5 turbo boost, the push rod blew a hole in the engine. I did my purchase at the spring booking

Did you have the bad boost controller ?

Wonder if it will be a NEW engine, or a new OLD engine. I know which one I would want.

I never had any doubt about Yamaha standing behind it. Hopefully you will be up and running before we get snow. Lol

I do my homework and that is why I ride a Yamaha. They do stand behind there product more than any other sled company. Believe me. Cripes it even starts before work is done with deductible at all the other companies. I am not tinted there are reasons I stick with Yamaha and it has been tough to sometimes. Warranty,After warranty care,4 stroke and TY!
