Hey, I'm new to the forum so here is the story; I took a spill a few years ago and cracked the block rite where the stator cover bolts on. I had 2 shops attempt to weld it but $1100 later and still leaks oil. So if anyone has a block or complete motor w/ less than 5k miles on it or if anyone nows someone good enough to fix it in the NYC area, let me know.

Thanks,
Gavin

 

JB WELD couldnt hurt to try it

 

Tried it, only holds for a few days. Thanks anyway.

 

oil seems to seep right around JB weld after a heat cycle or two.

 

I have used a 2 part epoxy mad by super glue..its for metal and is found at home depot in the paint area..make sure you clean and get all the oil out of the crack before aplying..if not i have a 954 motor that i dont have any use for

 

How much for the 954 and how many miles on it? what is wrong with it to have no use for it?
Thanks,
Gavin

 

i had the exact same problem with mine. 2 weeks after i bought it, it started leaking oil and well now i know why it had a salavage title.. anyway my old man is a mechanical welding genious and after trying to do it with jb weld he took some high grad high temp rubber and cut it out and shaped it to fit where the pice had broke out and put the rubber pice in. a new gasket and some silicon and it hasn't leaked since.

 

I dont need it because i sold my 954 and now have a 1000rr..miles unkown and it needs main bearings...I bought the motor to build and never did..make offer on the price
