Crack in case - 85-89 style Honda 250R engine - underneath sprocket.
VERY close up of crack.
If this was yours would you attempt to fix by welding or just get another engine case?

i think whatever would be cheapest,it could easily be welded,sanded,and you would never know the difference
Signature pic removed,becuase of no helmet.
Im going to enter an answer of no in right now, and then check back to see what the pros think and see if Im wrong or not.
JB weld or replace..my opinion. could be wrong.

Looking for some smaller style tires like the r's have, just 2 back tires. pm please.
Could I actually trust JB Weld on it?! Nothing really 'going on' in that area - just need it to not leak there. As far as I can imagine there is no 'pressure' on that spot - nothing rubbing up against it causing friction or pressure ....
hmmmmmmmmm
depends on who does the job. but thats an easy fix for some one who knows what there doing.

JB weld sucks. Anyone with a TIG could welder could weld that up and it would good as new... Stick it in a box and send it to me... I will weld it up for you...

a good welder shoudl be able to tig if for 20 bucks or so but first is figure out why it cracked!
ok here goes, 85 atc70,2 84 atc70's 83 alt50,83 atc110 , 70 us 90 parot green, 85/86 350x garage queen, stock rider 85 350x, project 85 350x 85 250r drag bike, 2 85 250sx's, alt185, , scat tracker?99blaster,85 250r rider,85 250r ice racer project ,93 kx500,99 xr200r, 91 dr250s ,89 lt500 quadzilla,88 lt250quadracer, 88 trx250r race full on race quad,, 01 yamahakodiak400, kawaki kd100,lt50 for my doughters,93 300ex, 230 quadsport, lt185, lt250 quadrunner,84200s, is that enough?
It's either cracked from the torn up gear inside cracking it or me splitting the cases. I only wish I woulda looked closer before I started to split the cases.
Anyway, it's cracked now and needs to be fixed/replaced - one way or another.
So this needs to be TIG welded? Regular weld is no good? JB Weld mix won't hold up? Cause I feel like slathering this liquid cooled slut with JB Weld and calling it a day.![]()
Stupid liquid cooled crap![]()
believe it or not JB weld holds up pretty well on a clean surface soif it doesnt mean that much to you just JB weld it

DO NOT Jb weld that...that crap sucks...sometimes you can find cheap deals on cases.....I would do that, but if you know someone you trust enough to TIG it up, then have that done.

again - regular weld won't work or what? I know crap all about welding. It 'has' to be tig welded? I mean - I don't need it to look all 'clean' and 'pretty' I just need it useable!
its a aluminum case tig works better for aluminum, go to any shp they will do it for under $20
and yea JB weld is for trail fixes only.that

They make alum. wire for MIG welders, but it will not hold as well and it will look like hell.....have someone with a TIG do it, it will look better and you will never have to worry about it again.
