Author Message   Koz5150 Posted on Wednesday, April 04, 2012 - 10:58 am:        So as I am slowly working through my bike for the spring cleanup I found something I know I did not want to find. Back in 2006 I went off the track (Blackhawk farms trackday) with my bike at about 85 mph. The bike flipped about 3 times end over end. I did get the bike back together later that year and have since put about 10,000 miles on it. However, I found the "hole" last night for the first time. It is located on the front of the case and the bolt is the bottom bolt for the shock mount. I know it is not good, but I am wondering if it is bad enough to shelf the bike until I can find a new crankcase or if I could even fix this one?   Koz5150 Posted on Wednesday, April 04, 2012 - 11:11 am:        Also, if I am looking at a new crankcase, what are my options? I know sportster crankcases are available pretty cheap, but I thought there was an issue with mounting the swingarm? I have a 2002 M2.   Buellistic Posted on Wednesday, April 04, 2012 - 11:40 am:        That CASE HALF is repairable if you take it to the right person ...   Firemanjim Posted on Wednesday, April 04, 2012 - 01:07 pm:        Is it puking oil? If not JB Weld and ride it! And like LaFayette says, any decent welder can fix that.   Koz5150 Posted on Wednesday, April 04, 2012 - 01:38 pm:        Well, it was puking oil, but I believe it was from the Oil Sensor which was a bit loose. I will keep an eye on it and i do know a great welder, i wish I had the piece that busted off though, it would have made the repair easier!   Road_thing Posted on Thursday, April 05, 2012 - 10:07 am:        New cases from HD will run you about $900. Never mind how I know this... rt   Koz5150 Posted on Thursday, April 05, 2012 - 10:31 am:        Well, if I have to go that route, I am going to rebuild with a 88" kit.   Firstbuell Posted on Thursday, April 05, 2012 - 04:28 pm:        88" oh, yes!! give Terry & Fireman Jim a ring over at sponsor, JT&S Performance - they'll set you right up   Buellistic Posted on Friday, April 06, 2012 - 10:10 pm:        Any body making a 105 CI kit for the BUELL engines ???
