    Flywheel rotor magnets

    Does anyone know where I can get some replacement flywheel rotor magnets for a 99 blaster? No luck browsing online and no local options. Flywheel still in good shape but the magnets are busted. Also, are any of the magnets I have still salvageable? Picture below.

    Need suggestions to fix a oil leak in engine

    Hey, I have a oil leak coming from where the cylinder meets the crankcase. Wondering if I could use some yamabond or JBweld to fix it? It’s a very small crack where the two crankcases meet. Here’s a picture of it, any help would be great!
