I just finished putting up a 869cc motor, and during break-in, it leaked almost half of its oil through out the clutch lockup cover.
I did not notice it until a was done, though the break-in did not last that long (maybe 3 minutes of hill shooting)
the quad was a strong runner and did not see any power loss, oil in the exhaust tips, over heating, or any weird noises.
when I drained whatever oil that was in there, most of it came out of the crank case, and very little from the oil tank.
I have found metal shavings in the oil filter; this is normal for complete builds, I presume: and the amount was very little.
the question here is:
Should I cont' to run it like I stole it?
OR
tear it down for complete check up?
need your opinions.
