Sounds like you would be better off looking for a used motor, but I totally understand the hard-headedness of *Dammit, I'm going to make this work!* LOL

Good luck with it!
I was thinking the same thing, you have no clue what else could have shifted inside the engine, even something as simple as a crank bolt could have been stretched just to the breaking point. I'm not sure of the figures, but I think it would probably be cheaper to get a good used engine. Or just buy a new bike.
