Gf's sister just bought an 09 xt250.
Her first bike. Dont know if it was user error or.. But an hour into her first ride, she got it stuck in mud. The clutch basket fingers broke off and roasted the clutch.
I really dont feel like splitting the case. I've cleaned the clutch side out and pull the stator side apart too. And sprayed brake clean into the bottom end the best I could. I am going to fill it will mineral spirts or something. Then I was planning on putting some cheap oil threw it about 3 times. And see if the oil comes out clean. If not then split it.
Is it likely to have to much shavings left in it and blow up?/take out the bearings?
Edit.. I'm already over thinking it way to much, so I'll probably just take the 4hrs or so, pull the engine and split it. I'll sleep better. Cause if a rod or crank bearing go out, it'll get nasty.
