Are you going to buy new triple clamps from the money you steal from people on other forums?

Sorry to keep posting this but I am not going to stop. Nothing worse in this world then a thief. Guy posts pics of his new bike in his new truck and talks about all these mods he is going to do. Meanwhile he is scamming people on other forums.
Do you even have or own a 2022 Honda CRF250R? If not, why are YOU in here other than to attempt to try and harass and name call? Have a good day.
The only reason you rectified the situation after months, was because people found out who you were and where you lived. You didn't realize that many moto guys drive Tacomas and your scam store got carried over here.
The moto community really really hates thieves.
We have never seen this on a new bike, we had some similar issues on our -17-18-19 450s though due to the rubber mounts on the clutch basket dissolving and causing oil starvation, but your shop said that the oil passages were clear, have they checked the oil-screen between the cases? Thats the place where everything originated for us.
I really hope Honda steps up and give you a new engine, they gave us all the parts we needed, otherwise i would recommend you throwing that head through the nearest Honda office window.
Again, you are just going on and on about something you actually know ZERO about. You don’t know what ACTUALLY transpired. Do what I asked you to do. Honestly, it’s not really any of your business what went on. It’s nothing like the OP stated. And I did nothing out of fear or because someone “thinks” they know where I live. No one ever got it right. I’M the one that reached out to the mods on there, not him. Including you, there is exactly NO ONE on that forum that actually knows me.
If I were trying to hide, I wouldn’t have made my new profile on here similar to the last one. It was Gibby’s suggestion as my old username kept logging out all the time and Gibby couldn’t figure out why. He suggested it, not me. 😉
Back to regular scheduled programming…
FYI. I have been posting on this thread for months as I am in the market for a new bike and I value the opinions from a lot of the commenters on this thread.
My goal was to warn people on here and enough eyes have seen it. At the end of the day, you are still a bum for doing what you did. End/
I bought a Honda instead of a Kawi because I thought Hondas were more reliable.
What the next move?
It was caused by the oil filter in backwards starving the upper end of oil.
The guy had a few too many frosty pops changed his oil before heading out of town to race .
He made 1 lap of practice bike died slowly he said. tried to restart . It popped then nothing.
Somewhere back in post you said filter in correctly. So if it was mine I would re assemble cylinder & piston with no rings. Use the old gaskets is fine.
remove cam chain. hold down cylinder w nuts & spacers fill with oil & crank it proving oil came up through cylinder.
Then I would clean head up a bit bolt it on, no cam , chain ect. But with cam tower/ cam holder in place.
Do the same & see if it pumps oil out all orifices.
With out the cams in it it should be a fair amount of oil .In the cam holder verify the oil nozzles are open Those spray on to the cam also.. check if plugs are intact here also.
What I'm looking for is the possibility of a thin engine case blowing out at an oil passage or an internal plug coming loose.
Causing an oil psi loss to head. It was oil starved. Since you assured us the oil was fine & filter in correctly. we can
move to more complicated cause of oil psi loss to head.
What I mentioned above is how I would proceed if it was mine.
The KX I ended up buying it from the guy. It never hurt the crank or any lower end parts. I bought a new head, cams, piston & rings ect. Ran great sold it. No issues.. Good luck.
If you lived close & bought parts I would fix it for you for free, just to see what was wrong.
Pit Row
That being said, I’ve ridden the new 250 a handful of times before mine finally came in. The bike rips and feels great. If you are looking for a new bike, this one rips. My second choice would have been the YZ250F. What year is your current bike?
Look familiar?
I can’t remember if I had high revs, but I was running a cross country race when I started having issues. I remember feeling a weird vibration shortly after laying the bike down. I can’t remember if it laid over on the throttle side and wrapped up for a minute or not but it could have. Bike was probably pointed up or down a hill too so probably worse than just being on its side.
Do all 4 strokes have this issue? It seems like I would hear about it more, but I see a lot more Yamaha and ktm around here at the cross country races than Honda. I am trying to figure out if I need to stick to two strokes or just avoid Hondas.
2strokes are way more fun off-road though 😎
Cams running on roller bearings seem to fair a little better or if they’re bad you can at least replace the cam bearings and carry on …..
So not just a Honda problem.
Also to consider , is where the oil pump pick up point is, if it’s on the left or right , you probably won’t have an issue when tipped on the one side . If the pick up is in the center , while feeding oil nicely the majority of the time you’d have a greater chance of issues when tipped over extremely far on either or both sides.
