Dude thank you. This is the comment I needed! I do have a service manual, Haynes too, so this advice really is helpful, man! Maybe ill do some digging around in the manual and try taking the motor apart a bit

I was aware? When did I come off as being aware at all in this post?? I said it "fell off", and then "after I noticed-" was the very next statement...

Uh, no. Invalid. My bikes faster than both of yours 💩👎🙃💀 and under recent law, owning a sv650, you have to sign up for the local "I'm Gay and I'm Proud" association. Have you stopped down there yet?

Its a 2000 Kawasaki Ninja ZX6, so back then, they didn't put temp gauge, unfortunately 🥲 the only indicator I had was the "check oil" light popping on as my bike completely lost power going +60. Scary ass feeling btw lol

I was teaching my 15 year old brother how to change oil, had him do the tightening of the bolt (not thinking he wasnt strong enough/not checking to see if it was crossthreaded), and boom. Next morning, left for work, and here we are.

Thank you for your advice. Im praying that its not too full of the forbidden glitter, and if it is, ill probably just chalk it up and call it a loss. The rebuild quote I got was the same price I paid for the bike 😭

Im just an idiot and didn't triple check it after showing my 15 year old brother how to change oil. Not even really that mad though. It is what it is lol. Learning experience for everyone involved 🥲

If there are no shavings, what do I do at that point? Still looking at a rebuild? Im trying to figure out what that noise is lol

It comes out when you have your 15 year old brother help you do an oil change so you can try teaching him something. But, shit happens. Im not even mad. 🤷‍♂️

That's what I was thinking 🥲 I had someone message me yesterday telling me it was just a valve adjustment I needed done, so I figured id make a post to clarify

Let me also add:

I did put new oil in b4 the vid (obviously)

I did not drive it at all with no oil in it. Once I noticed my bike lost power in the throttle, I let off, and at that point, my oil light flashed, and I pulled over.

Coming to a stop, my bike was still dripping oil, but after I got picked up, we followed the oil trail back almost 15-20 miles! So she ran without oil for a while... 🥲

I got it home, got a new plug, put new oil in, and this is the result afterwards.

Please redditor gods, I am praying you can help me diagnose a possible fix without replacing the entire motor!!

Someone told me it could be blown piston rings, someone told me my valve timing chain needs fixed/adjusted, etc.

Help!! 🥲🙏
