Motor Install

[evilFive]

Thanks for the offer! I'm in Southern Highlands with limited tools but the garage has power. I could transport the bike anywhere needed and could surely supply beer and pizza in addition to the latex gloves . I also have the PDF of the service manual if needed. The tracking info shows that the motor will be delivered to my buddy's auto shop on Friday.

"Quick" how I got here is:

Bike is a 2007 ZX-6R that I bought used with almost 20,000 miles on the odometer. The bike has a -1/+2 with no speedo healer so the miles are a bit inflated. I had the bike serviced by Mike and Keith at High Velocity Motorsports. The bike had low compression on #2 and #3, loose valves on #1, #3, #4 but #2 was in spec. They adjusted the valves and water injected the motor after which the compression was at mid 190's across the board. Mike rode the bike a few days and said it was good to go. Less than a tank of a gas later on my way home from work I heard a strange ticking sound and by the time I had time to pull over the motor had seized. The bike was inspected and it was determined the rod bearing on #2 had failed allowing the piston to slam into the valve, etc.
