Guys,
I have a 2003 RM250. Last week I changed the top end for the 1st time using Wiseco parts. The bike strted great at the house and I headed to the track. Upon starting the bike and reving it a little I noticed at the mid revs a harsh vibration coming up trough the tank and a tinny sound that sounded like the bike had no exhaust on it; very loud.
I shut down the bike and brought it to my Suzuki dealership to check out. They say that the top end bearing disintigrated !! Luckly all the pieces where found and my engine didn't need to be cracked. The dealer claims Wiseco gave me the wrong parts, Wiseco of course says they are correct. The dealership is now doing the top end with genuine Suzuki parts and I am shipping the Wiseco parts back for Wiseco to look at.
Has anyone with a Suzuki encountered the same issue using non-Suzuki parts in the top end. The dealer claims they have seen this before and of course say I should only use there parts for the top end.
Any thoughts ??
Thanks,
Steven
