Is this bad?

[union]

Its a connecting rod sticking through the case of my motor

I guess when things are whipping around at 15000 rpms in a manner they arent supposed to other things break too

[e30addict]

Little JB Weld and you'll be all set.

[CBR929RE]

duct tape will fix that

[Lucas]

JB weld?

[Karaya One]

That'll buff right out.

[Lucas]

Damn I didn't know jb weld and duct tape solutions were already suggested. I'll go with zip tie then.

[DuncanMoto]

JB weld is basically duct tape in a putty form.

That's not a rod sticking through the case, it's half a rod sticking through the case.

Well there's your problem.

[Awesome]

Shoulda left it stock.

Shoulda left it stock.

Everything in it is yamaha oem parts. Nothing special. If I can find it I can show you the receipt from cycle design.

[gadget]

Just get a few guys to lift it.

[Slowpoke387]

Looks fine, just run it.

[BrianC]

Hope it all comes together for ya James... Good luck on the search for a new motor.

Isn't this the 3rd time? Maybe it's time to find a better engine builder

[tropicoz]

second time. First time it caught a ring. If you saw the rings they put in these youd wonder why it didnt happen more often. They are paper thin. No idea what causes a rod to break.

I fixered it up for ya, Mark.

[j4eric]

I,ve had worse....quick steel if all others fail.....a little oil should help tooo...not too much though.

So you could be at the back of the pack?

It's nice back there. Lots of room and no worries about someone taking you out.

to answer the OP's question. Yeah, thats bad.

What the hell caused this exactly? was this Engine built or stock? some of the previous posts confuse me a bit.
