Guess what I broke...
Posted: 05:40 pm Dec 04 2011
So first time taking apart a powervalve 2 stroke and big surprise I broke something.
Every thing was going good, supported the KIPS shaft, got the cylinder off and on the bench. Then it happened...just a little TINK sound. I broke the last tooth off the smiley gear(on the far right when looking at it).
So how hosed am I? Looking on line its looking like 70 bucks. Any body got one laying around? Do I really need all the teeth
And how much carbon is normal? I got the bike this spring, and it still had the stock tires('97 220). I've only put maybe 25 gallons through it. I runs good(well ran before this weekend). Just wondering? All the valves came out no problem, and the main valve just needs a little scraping.[/img]
