Help I need an XTX engine
 

My engine has blown and have been quoted �900 to rebuild it. Does anyone know of any breakers that may have an engine for an 04 plate xtx.
She is going on about me getting rid of it again..... Thanks for taking the time to read this...I hope you can help.

Bad news on the blown engine. Welcome to the forum. Sorry, do not have any leads on the replacement engine. Others may in the forum I'm sure someone will be along shortly.

Why did it blow?

Hello and sorry about your engine ,cant help with your find but i'm sure someone here will.
Curious why she blew,What sort of miles did it have.

What actually went wrong with the motor??

his bike was written off recently .

It just went bang.
 

It has 12,00 miles on the clock, most of which has been a daily 80 mile round trip to work on the M1. It is a right mess.

Follow this link and then "ask seller a question". He says he has many parts so you never know.

Good luck

What was the reason it blew? Just mileage? (How's that work then?)

Did you have regular services? Did a part fail in an un-usual way?

Mic.

Your not the only one!
 

i have a 2008 XTX from new and within the first 10k miles the head stock bearings went. got them changed and now within 12k milkes from new the crankshaft has gone, got that repaired under warranty, and NOW at only 13k miles the top end has gone.

I love the bike to bits but its having more problems then a 20 year old bike.
I only go to and from work on the bloody thing, ive serviced it early everytime, i dont know what to do with it, i still got another 2 years payin the finance off on it.

Has anyone else had this much trouble or am i just extremely unlucky!

Please help!!

you're not alone, I've had 3 engines in my bike: on the 1st one the gears went popcorn, changed all under warranty, the 2nd time the main rod that holds the gears snapped in two, the 3rd engine went with the bike when it was stolen, never got the chance to break that one... but I was lucky to buy 2 used ones and I must say the last one was a minter, and run like clockwork...

THE END
