Hello everyone, I have a 2005 Yamaha Blaster that needs work done to it, and I am looking for parts / your guys opinion.
Basically, the top end blew on it, and pieces of the piston got in the crank bearings, and also cracked the engine cases. The cylinder still has a 66mm bore, and was just honed, and looks perfect, as well as the cylinder head.
So essentially, I need a top end kit (Don't need cylinder or cylinder head), as well as a crank, and engine cases. I am debating on what to do, such as buying a used bottom end in great condition, and buying a top end piston kit... or buying all the parts I need and rebuilding my entire engine... etc.
What I have done to the Blaster, is a full FMF Powercore II, VForce 4 Reeds, UNI Filter with lid off, Oil Delete, and rebuilt the carb (Using a 310 jet).
I bought the Blaster used, and I dont think there has ever been a top end rebuild, so I am assuming the piston broke because of wear overtime, resulting in piston slap, shattering the skirt.
I have a 400-500$ budget to get this thing completely done, and I am looking for your guys opinions on what to do. Also, if you guys have any of the parts for sale that I need, let me know! Such as a complete bottom end in great condition (Crank Included), or the left and right engine cases, etc.
