So, having great fun at the last NHIS Penguin Track experience when my new to me '02 SV650 made a bad, bad noise climbing out of turn 6. Seems the crank and rods decided to chew on each other. Full of oil and water/wetter, not sure why this happened. So much for a reliable, low maintenance bike... Anybody have advice on repair vs. replace, or a lead on a motor? I think 03-06 works with modification, 99-02 a direct fit. I really don't want to eBay an unknown motor, and can't justify OEM replacement parts. Going back to TTD on the 18th, any ideas folks?
