Sled is an 04 summit 800. Just got a call from the shop and they told me that the noise must be a crank bearing or rod bearing. I'm exploring options and opinions. The shop told me they'd order a new motor, and it was going to be about $2000 and they're keeping the core. That sounds about $700 high to me. I don't have a problem doing the swap, but I don't know how much to really repair this one. It still starts right up and runs, but has a knock.
Where do I look for a good price on a new motor? Can't seem to find much used out there. Not sure I really want to go used anyway. This sled is my spare, and my other is still running. I was thinking of selling this one, but I am glad it gave me problems before I sold somebody a problem.
Sled is a 144 with boondocker NOS (never used by me), R&M vents, team secondary, holz front end, SLP Powder pros. If I buy a new motor, will I ever get my inventment back? Is it better to sell what's there now?
Anybody have some advise? I live 2 miles from CPI. I don't know how much of this stuff they do, but it's definately coming home from the dealer.
Thanks for any comments.
