Well, I was going in some mud on a trail by my house and the chain came off the back sprocket I guess and bound up in the front sprocket. There was so much pressure in there the piece of the engine that comes out on top of and in front of the sprocket broke off :-/. And only in one spot did it go deep enough to actually see inside the engine, and that wasn't a very big hole.

So I was originally planning to take out the engine and give it to a shop, get them to split the case and give me that piece and I would go and get it welded. But, after me and my dad took another look at it, we decide we could use some marine epoxy kinda stuff. Its like JBWeld but better I think.
I was just wondering if this has happened to any other warriors or rap 350s out there.
It also happened to my friends warrior but only a little piece broke off. There are some pics for ya
