Got it delivered to Glenn at Allfixed, dropped the bike around. Glenn's spent the best part of yesterday and today and the end result...........
The motor is rooted. The thieving bastard wrecker in the US has removed the starter and the starter drive gear and in doing so broke a chunk out of the engine case thus meaning we can't put a starter in it. Not great but no biggy, it's a track bike so we can clutch it. Numerous messages to seller has him giving me numerous versions of how this came about.
Today Glenn finishes it off, goes to start it and.................no oil pressure. Has a look and guess what, the oil pump drive shaft and the drive gear have been removed. It's also pretty evident that the motor has been apart and reassembled.
Now I'm lodging disputes with Ebay because the item wasn't as described ie it's not running.
In the meantime Glenn transplants our oil pump and drive shaft and gear into the new motor. Starts it up and...............still no oil pressure and the engine sounds horrible. Verdict..................the engine, described by the scamming arsehole in the US as Excellent running condition is rooted.
The upshot. I've just toasted $2,100 plus labour for a paperweight in the shape of a ZX6 engine. The best I can hope for now is the original cost plus freight ie $1,400 back from Ebay
Hats off again though to Glenn at Allfixed who has done an awesome job through the whole process. I actually feel sorry for him when he has to ring me up and constantly give me bad news.
I think we might be parting out a ZX6 tracky and two half munted engines soon.
Where to now.?
Maybe worth giving customs a call and letting them know they charged u duty on an incomplete blown motor. Not sure you'll get anywhere with the quaratine fee but worth a try at least
