Title: SICK, SICK, SICK
Post by: dond6 on August 01, 2003, 04:37:38 PM
Finally got the bike together after redoing the top end, and moding the heck out of it (K&N, F1R, Progressive springs, jets, b4 rear wheel, etc) fired it up ran great for a minute then .........clack, clack, clack, thunk. Siezed the motor. That's what I get for only redoing the top end. I'm just sick. Well, time to do a major rebuild. :cry:

You remembered to refill it with oil before starting it right?  You have no idea how many guys ruin brand new hot rod engines because of that simple mistake.

Sorry to hear the bad luck though.  That sucks man
