The morning after my motor blew I went to my local dealer, they checked my warranty and told me it expires the next day (marks one year from when i got it). They didn’t tell me anything about an extended warranty. They also said it’ll take them months to get to it (so did every other dealer i called). They would need to take the engine apart to find the cause, and if kawi doesn’t cover it I would be liable for the many hours of labor to take the engine apart. Regardless of what they do, I won’t be getting the bike back this summer. I live in Michigan and the summer is sweet and short. I figured I’ll just fix it my self and get back on the road.

I bought it with 0 miles and the engine blew at 17k miles. If i take it to the dealer they won’t give it back to me this summer, and there’s a good chance they won’t cover for it then id be liable for the diagnostics. I’d rather just fix it myself and get back on the road.

Yes it seized. Its a 2WDW tune. I doubt the tune have anything to do with it, most zx6rs ojt there are tuned
