I have seen it happen on 07's too.....



There is a way to keep it from happening again. We have some YFZ's that were built in June and July of 2005 that are still running today.

There are very few ways to keep a Yamaha engine together. Every YFZ engine that I have seen that has blown up has either only had some type of high compression piston and head work done, or has been completely stock and broken any way. Another major problem is the ignition timing, and when people add an aftermarket non programmable CDI box to the mix, either a piston pin, pin boss, connecting rod or rod bearing will fail.

We have worked with a few very well known aftermarket companies on what was causing the failures they were having with their YFZ engine kits. 

We have a few yamahas running around the country that have had a couple of years on them with nothing but a re ring. These results have shown us that these engines need A LOT more bottom end work than they are getting.

The biggest problem is most people can't afford or flat out won't spend the money to put the proper parts and machine work in the engine to keep this from happening. As well, when you build a race engine even more so with the YFZ's you have to do a lot more costly maitenence to keep them tip top.
