[QUOTE="clw, post: 165405, member: 15960"] [b]Yes, Yes[/b] There's always a coating of grease on the sealing edge. Again, the inside of the airboot has always looked clean. I find , after a muddy/water splashing ride, some dirt on the cage, but the boot and inside of the filter always look clean. After the second breakdown I was told by the mechanic that a lot of contaminates went through the motor, I didn't believe him till I saw the cylinder and piston damage. I even suspected that possibly the boot was damaged or loose allowing unfiltered air (and Dirt) an unfiltered path to the motor, but upon inspection didn't find anything wrong. So I'm baffled. Like I said before, the only change I've made in chemicals or much anything was to start using Notoil last year so it's my suspect. What's baffling is that years ago we had some real enduros. You know the kind where you get stuck up to the seat, cross repeated deep water and in general abuse the bike. Never had a problem then. Of course the airboxes of that era only took in air through the top. Todays airboxes have drains that are big enough to put 3 fingers in without a one-way valve. They aren't designed for torture runs. Maybe it's just my turn to have some bad luck. Thanks for all the responses. [/QUOTE]
