if your just going to use the engine in something else I might be interested in the rest of the bike love the builds brother can't wait to see what you do with it .. no hard feelings if not 🤘🤘🤘
Could of been driven in a hurricane on the beach. Either way I'm sure you'll find a way to patch her up. I'm excited what kind of turbo your installing and what the build will be.
Boy got ripped off 2200 for a busa with a trashed engine is way to much 1500 maybe if the rest of the bike was pristine wich it wasn't so 750 to 900 would have been a fair price for that junker.
As far as welding the machined parts bolt a stainless steel bar across the opening and weld against it till the hole is fixed it should give you a fairly flat surface for a gasket
Very interesting episode Vasily I reckon almost definitely sabotage. Hopefully sand not able to get through oil pick-up. Price was honest though... Just have to get bearing clearances data regardless of matching halves. Lining up crank bearing caps, you should see if anything looks off when you take head off engine(looking through).
Well its up to personel taste. I think the bike looks dope with the fat rear wheel and the custom exhaust and chrome stuff. Looks really sick, but I understand what you wanna do with it. Looking forward to it.
I definitely think the tiny hole happened first and it still ran. dude said fuck it and kept riding it till it got to much road debris and threw a rod. cant wait to see what you do with it tho!!
Dude said it was making "pumping sounds". Maybe a minor low side allowed a rock etc to bust the case but think that's unlikely. The holes were in line as if a rod suddenly decided it needed fresh air. It's possible to injest road debris in a crash so maybe the bike blew and then went down or atleast off the road at speed causing the foreign matter intrusion. Idk. It's very suspect but if it was introduced into a working motor there would be signs of it everywhere, not just in the pan.
I hope you can get parts put it all back together and get that motor running love to see what you do with this and the frame love the channel keep up the great work
I'm interested in this project. I bought a new '06 'Busa too. Still have it. A fantasy has been to use the motor for something wild. Probably never will.
Enjoy all your content from the scratch built from the ground up projects to your ripping around on your wicked creations. That said it’s super cool seeing you rebuild engines and this busa rebuild is going to be a lot of fun to follow. Okay keep up the good work!
you are 100% correct. Somebody put a handful of sand into that engine. Probably somebody that did not like those short muflers and was sick of all the rev bombig and shiny chrome from that bike. Good luck rebuilding the engine. Cant wait to see a "big" turbo on that engine.
Damn sounds a little personal for you bud lol. Anyone who sabotage someone’s build is a piece of shit. And very well could’ve hurt the rider or killed them doing so.
if the hole was underneath it could simply be sand / dirt of the road which was blown into the whole, he will have driven it a fair distance before it completely tanked. It not sugar though as it not sitll be crysalised. I guess there is a chance its sabotage but I think my first guess is more likely.
I don’t know if anyone has said this already but a good way to tell if it’s actually sand in the engine is if there is actually an air filter in the filter box.
usually on suzukis, you can see if the crankcases are matching numbers by removing the left engine cover and then the flywheel, the codes are right there; and as far as I know, motorcycle crankshafts can't be repaired as they run on very low tolerances(less than 0.004mm, that's like 0.00015 inches)
Oh yea you can rebuild cranks, you need a press and good measurements like you said and more but people do it. clearances will be different for different models and manufacturers but I would guess you measure it before you take it apart and see what it is.
No matter what happened to that engine I have no doubt you will get it back up and running. Anxiously awaiting to see what you will build to put this engine in.
That's almost a guarantee. I would probably replace the oil pump too. It has to have been thrashed. Hopefully, the filter caught everything and the bearing journals aren't absolutely wasted everywhere. It should have. But, there is a bypass on almost all oil filters after they get plugged up to bypass the filter guts and make sure the bearings don't starve. I've never cut a sport bike filter apart for some reason though.
Id guess the bike slid down the road, wore a hole in the engine cover picking up sand and other road junk. Travis swapped out the engine cover with the hole in it with a new one and didnt bother to clean the debris out first.
That will be an awesome motor can’t wait to see what you build! There’s a guy limitless builds that is making a turbo hayabusa Willy’s jeep that might give you some ideas
19mm hex keys are pretty available and inexpensive. they may have over revved it and blew the motor...and from sitting around sand got into it...or it was laid down in a sandy area after it blew... Marine Crankshaft does great work on crank repair.
I've been working on Hayabusas since the first one made in 99, they are amazing engines. There are lots of good parts there to use or sell, but do yourself a favor and get another engine, that one is toast. Don't forget, the Buss engine has no sleeves, just coated aluminum bores. Those motors are plentiful, don't waste a bunch of time on that one. On a lighter note, I wonder how much of that bike isn't stolen? Lol

@@muhammadsteinberg Are you really blind to the fact that your statement is racist? Sounds like you have a lot of hate in your heart for whatever reason. I pray that you find some peace 🙏❤
If Suzuki builds engines like the ones I build at work the lower block has its own number possibly from an outside supplier and once it’s mated to an upper block that has its own number it will receive a new number for the machining tracking. So it’s not surprising to have multiple different numbers stamped/punched/etched into the various castings. A numbers matching engine just means the numbers match the build sheet, not each other. You are correct about the parts being machined as a set. You might get away with replacing one component but chances are it won’t work without getting a shop to line bore the journal’s.
You have a hitch on that vehicle. U-Haul rents a motorcycle trailer for $16 and it makes bringing bikes home so much easier. I brought 2 bikes home recently and used a U-Haul trailer behind my minivan both times since it gets better mileage than my truck and I didn't need the truck since bikes are light.
I was wondering if a mini van could make a bike hauler lol. That's a clean bike even if it needs work, definitely not a rust bucket! Looking forward to your builds, I subscribed!
Looking forward to the epic project you’ve got planned for this monster! Drop that motor into an aluminum jet boat, and hit Cleatus up for a collab’! Keep doing what you do!
5 speed gear box jet boat?? There’s multiple reasons people don’t use bike motors in jet boats. Hayabusa severely underpowered compared to supercharged seadoo motor.
The whole thing with case half’s being machined together as matching pairs is mostly a myth. I’ve ordered case half’s many many MANY times on eBay individually and only had an issue once and still was able to make it work with some gentle machine work…. Castings these days especially from Japan are done to such tight tolerances and so many are made the quality is unreal. The likelihood of you having an issue with buying a spare half is slim. Also I think the engine either threw a wrist pin, or they where beating the balls of it doing burnouts with a crazy hot engine and the big end just let loose. It’s more than likely dropped a valve and ruined a head aswell.
Sport bikes cases are nothing like dirtbike cases.there cast as a matching set due to clearance reasons. Just like you can’t replace cam caps with other cam caps off another bike cam caps are clearanced to the head it came with from the factory . Blow that bogus advice up some one else as’s. A dirtbike case can interchange on every brand but Kawasaki. Kawasaki is the only one that cast matches them as a pair. Has to be a matching set with Kawasaki. Honda ,ktm, Yamaha, Suzuki sells both engine sides separately so obviously they don’t cast match
With all your experience can I ask u have u ever had an issue with out of round or tapered main bearing bores I’ve measured up three sets of cases if FZ 750 Yamaha ones and they all have the same prob ( no brg shells in ) any recommendations on fixing the prob besides binning the cases btw all the engines were runners Can I ask how u plastigage your brgs and crank do u measure two sides at once or one. Thank u
Case halves are line bored together, any fool saying otherwise is just that, a fool. Your crank has snapped, that's why the you have a rod popping out.
@@thedirtyworkshop thank god for people like me and you that don’t spill out bad advice . I can’t stand kids that spew out bullsh’t . Thanks for telling him what’s up.
You seem to know a fair bit about rebuilding engines so maybe this is a moot point but yummy noob has just finished his turbobusa‘s second rebuild because the first time they used the wrong pistons. Something about too high of compression pistons. Anyway can’t wait to see what you’re up to because just what you’ve described sounds awesome!
Be very careful if you rebuild that engine. If thats sand, glass or whatever its going to have gone through everything. Getting it all out will be almost impossible (especially from coolers/etc) and even the smallest piece left will destroy it again. Not something you want happening when you've got something capable of 200mph+. Get another engine and sell the good parts from this one - it will pretty much fund it, save you a heap of time and you're less likely to die.
My guess is the previous owner was bouncing off the rev limiter out of gear and the engine gave up. The filter probably caught whatever the sand like stuff is from getting into the engine.
I wish all the luck in the world, you might want to look at some of Allen Millyard's videos where he makes a 2 cyc bike engine into a 4 cyc engine maybe you can see how he does blocks...
Gday Vas,, Id say the foreign material is likely to be clutch , the bearings will tell the story. The dude prob thrashed it ,smokin the tyres till he cooked it, If it is still in spec & can be rebuilt ,,, It can be rebuilt BETTER....!!! Lookin forward to this one,, Respect from Down Under
my theory is they blew a hole in the block but the engine still ran so they said fuck it and kept riding, dirt got in the engine through the hole and eventually the 2nd hole happened
I have a complete Prostreet spec low compression engine with non intercooled turbo set up. “Stage 1” would be the easiest way to say it. Made 380 on 30 psi on C16. Can provide more details if interested.
Sabotage is the best theory. Ground glass, silica from a sand blaster or road junk. Any one of those foreign substances are the culprit. As long as you were going to tear it down anyway, it’s a moot point. Looks like it’s going to be an exciting build.
I've heard of sand put in fuel tanks to destroy engine's, but sand added to gearboxes that's a new one. I'm thinking it would sink to the bottom of the casing and most of it would stay there with the engine running. Maybe cut open the oil filter to see if it was circulating through the engine.
HELL YEAH BROTHER!! Now THAT is going to be fun!! Its going to be interesting to see what is in the oil passages... definitely got sabotaged.. I just hope it didnt get into to the cams or the transmission! Make sure you do a Complete Teardown and clean out ALL of the oil passages to make sure you get all of the mystery rockery out... could it be sugar? Oof.. I didn't say that. Either way BAD ASS project Vasily!! Got my fingers crossed for ya!
Seeing u break down that bike with basic tools and no lift, it reminds me of myself doing the exact same thing decades ago. U have a very bright future ahead of u if you chose to continue doing this. However, it would do u good to invest in new equipment. If u can. It makes the job a lot easier. Also, at my shop…. We build engines for racing or jus simple rebuilds. I would recommend that u NOT try and weld those holes. Even though it would work for awhile. It would best to just purchase another bottom half and top half. Also, u need to measurements of ur crankshaft and connecting rods. Hope this help. Good luck to ya
While you have the engine out get that second gear undercut. Guaranteed to start slipping if it’s not already. Just a heads up. Good luck on the build!
in 2000 I bought new busa to use as a drag bike. after a little work it made 172hp to the wheel and I sold the bike after five years of racing. Not one engine issue. all stock bottom end. If this guy scattered the motor on a low miles bike he was bouncing it off the limiter
Good price buddy check the frame for cracks last thing you want is the front fork split into half causing your head to split open, 2 wheels means no joke this shit will kill within seconds.
for 2.2k usd, the fastest way to get out is probably to find on a grey market complete engine and swap to a frame and sale it...selling it by parts will take long imho
I wish you take your time and build the whole motorcycle... and post it one video...With few time laps and explanation clips... it would be sooo cool...
interesting i sold my old fully working busa for a bar chocolate and cup tea as I was leaving the country I have since been told that picking up a free busa is not that big a deal. Good luck with build
Suspect! The bike was sabotaged! What you pulled out of there looks like it wasn't there long. If you can successfully remedy that engine, you are the man. Alas, best of luck man!
If there’s not a form of gasket sealer between the cases, there a very good chance they are the original cases, which I honestly wouldn’t doubt as most of the time people just replace the engine.
Remove the swing arm and wheels can get the amount purchased out of them the exhaust around $4-600 not many people like the double exhaust or yoshi mainly brocks system is go too best power gain outside of turbo Gen 1 cases are great strong and hold power us 2nd gen crank and cams whatever rods pistons you please stroker build significant power gain low-end have the transmission undercut and polished while engines apart 1st gen are known for killing 2nd gear without that work done
Toss the entire engine and find a new donor engine. You're going to have debris everywhere in the oil journals and possibly all the way up to the heads damaging those cams. It is absolutely not worth your time and money to restore that engine
I was having some issues with the audio I do apologize. **Wheels are sold

And a Handy lift. I wouldn't waste your time with the engine. It's gone!!! In addition of the bottom end, it has to have a valve salad up top.

Make sure you do a Complete Teardown and clean out ALL of the oil passages to make sure you get all of the mystery rockery out... could it be sugar? Oof.. I didn't say that. Either way BAD ASS project Vasily!! Got my fingers crossed for ya!
This is ganna be a epic build for sure. Keep it street Vasily, we really wanna see you smoke that supra😂
Seeing u break down that bike with basic tools and no lift, it reminds me of myself doing the exact same thing decades ago. U have a very bright future ahead of u if you chose to continue doing this. However, it would do u good to invest in new equipment. If u can. It makes the job a lot easier. Also, at my shop…. We build engines for racing or jus simple rebuilds. I would recommend that u NOT try and weld those holes. Even though it would work for awhile. It would best to just purchase another bottom half and top half. Also, u need to measurements of ur crankshaft and connecting rods. Hope this help. Good luck to ya
Looks like 80 grit glass beads. I use them in my blast cabinet.
I love how y’all got that bike in a mini van. HELL YEAH
thats glass sphere beads used in floor coating to stop people from slipping
While you have the engine out get that second gear undercut. Guaranteed to start slipping if it’s not already. Just a heads up. Good luck on the build!
On everything my 2nd gear slipping. I quick shift to 3rd everytime
Good luck and sorry for the engine i saw lot of ppl put sault, sugar and stuff in others tanks or mix em with ether oil or gas this is so evil
Good buy! Great content! Sick ideas bro keep them coming!
in 2000 I bought new busa to use as a drag bike. after a little work it made 172hp to the wheel and I sold the bike after five years of racing. Not one engine issue. all stock bottom end. If this guy scattered the motor on a low miles bike he was bouncing it off the limiter
Good price buddy check the frame for cracks last thing you want is the front fork split into half causing your head to split open, 2 wheels means no joke this shit will kill within seconds.
Could you fix it and ride it for few days at least and than use it as a donor wehicle or engine etc
I believe the first 1 minute and 20 seconds , can be translated as, Previous owner ran the crap out of it, blew it up, and now its for sale.
Guy down the street from me has a Datsun B210 With a Turbo zx14 with over 400 H/P The thing rips. He Rally cross races it in PA.
I didn't know you liked clapped out machines. You should look for a front lifted truck too when you are in the atlanta area.
could be sugar... but that is mainly pored into gas tanks to ruin the engine by gumming up all the fuel system
for 2.2k usd, the fastest way to get out is probably to find on a grey market complete engine and swap to a frame and sale it...selling it by parts will take long imho
Vasily Builds you have came a long way since you first started keep the Bike everyone needs a Sports Bike
I wish you take your time and build the whole motorcycle... and post it one video...With few time laps and explanation clips... it would be sooo cool...
You got that thing in minivan? Wow!!! Dope purchase.
Good job man! I’m interested to learn about motorcycle mechanics did you went to school for that?
interesting i sold my old fully working busa for a bar chocolate and cup tea as I was leaving the country I have since been told that picking up a free busa is not that big a deal. Good luck with build
I would say this engine was absolutely thrashed while waiting at traffic intersections.
Suspect! The bike was sabotaged! What you pulled out of there looks like it wasn't there long. If you can successfully remedy that engine, you are the man. Alas, best of luck man!
That's sugar in the block somebody wanted to seize that engine up.
Had a ZX12R.....used to pass busa's at RA 3 at a time down the straight....but they do rip
i got a burn up tl1000 if u want it rims motor chain exhaust fame brakes still good the fairings and wires are burned tho got a clean title
If there’s not a form of gasket sealer between the cases, there a very good chance they are the original cases, which I honestly wouldn’t doubt as most of the time people just replace the engine.
Remove the swing arm and wheels can get the amount purchased out of them the exhaust around $4-600 not many people like the double exhaust or yoshi mainly brocks system is go too best power gain outside of turbo
Gen 1 cases are great strong and hold power us 2nd gen crank and cams whatever rods pistons you please stroker build significant power gain low-end have the transmission undercut and polished while engines apart 1st gen are known for killing 2nd gear without that work done
This bike is some project . I am glad your bringing it back to life
if u plan on turboing it u better undercut the transmission 2 gear is common issue to go out
Toss the entire engine and find a new donor engine. You're going to have debris everywhere in the oil journals and possibly all the way up to the heads damaging those cams. It is absolutely not worth your time and money to restore that engine
i tought you couldnt weld engine blocks since they are casted
I'm crossing my fingers that you'll take that long frame and turn it into your own leaning reverse trike! Good luck buddy
Some valves are hollow and filled with sodium, so maybe the sand you see came from the valves. Just an idea worth looking into.
