      Hi Boon & Harish,

      If you have fixed the issue, can you elaborate?

        • In my case the service guys could not fix the kit properly.That is why I had to suffer endlessly.
          I had to change the entire cam and head assembly including valves too.

            Sounds like a severe engine seizure... you seem to have blown the oil rings or seized at least one of the valves... three things come to mind instinctively; overheating, oil starvation, excessive loads..... the remedy will depend upon how much damage has taken place... under such circumstances, do not run the engine any further till it is opened and the problem is identified and rectified... you will only cause more damage to the engine... do post some pics and keep us updated...

            • Do these things happen due to improper installation of the big-bore kit? Or could other factors be involved?

                There are a lot many factors, but the bottom line is this: the ultimate result is that the loads (which includes thermal, physical, and chemical) went far beyond the properties of the oil to protect and lubricate the engine whereby leading to metal to metal contact of the moving parts.

                • @abhimanyu31, why does this kind of problem occur ? Is it because of wrong grade engine oil and ripping the bike after installing the bigbore ?

                  • i think so there is some or may be a high starvation of oil that has caused the issue.

                    things happened like this: i hope that this would help you understand the issue much better.

                    8th July i changed the oil and put Motul factory Line oil and changed the oil filter

                    Completed the 500KM got the bike serviced.

                    Gave the Bike to joel on 18th July.....
                    got the bike on 25th (without the ECU and DB Killer)

                    Did running for 600 KM(below 4500RPM) and went back to joel and got the DB killer installed but not the ECU.

                    Changed the oil same motul factory line.

                    After which drove almost 200 KM in 3 days and on Monday morning the problem occurred while returning from nice road.

                    when Yamaha people opened the engine there was not oil and he told that engine got seized...... then he told that the clutch plate was missing

                    anyways lets wait to get a conformation

                      Like I said, there are lot many factors, but the bottom line is the same whether it is improper oil or ripping the bike after installing the big bore (excessive loading) or faulty assembly.... there are a lot many factors because of which it can happen, but the consequence will always be lubrication failure due to breach of lubrication parameters of the oil....

                      Something does not make sense out here... what has clutch plates got to do with the problem... to install the big bore, you don't have disassemble the clutch... also who changed the oil (after the running in) and during oil change was the oil filter replaced?

                      • ^^ would having a better grade oil that would be more temp resistant help in avoiding this ??

                          • ^^^ I don't think there is a missing clutch plate... I think his bike has the FZ clutch plate assembly, and hence whoever has opened the engine seems to think that there is one less clutch plate... the other reason I am flummoxed is why has the clutch assembly been opened unless it is to check the big end...

                              How did you ride on the Nice road. Any point after your run-in did you hold WOT for extended periods?

                                Did they changed oil in front of your eyes?
                                Was there any leakage or the bolt was not fixed properly and was there any oil loss?
                                If they dint changed it in front of your eyes i suspect they have not filled the oil at all.
