Hello and thankyou for reading!
Yesterday after years of waiting my parents purchased me a new KTM SX50 for £600, I Was told everything was fine, and it was until late this afternoon i turned off the engine to let it cool down for about an hour of so, then i started up again to go for another quick 15 minute ride, i rode the bike for literally two minutes and seen a horse so turned my engine off, when i went to start it again i noticed a trail of oil behind me, my engine was not compressed and a crack in my crank case ( will put pictures at the bottom of this post ), i think there is no problem with compression just a gear connected to the kickstart is not connecting to the engine to start it up, i have looked at a exploded diagram on the internet and see no missing parts, and there is a bolt that will not go on the thread, ( Will also post pictures of this ) so i am hoping the crank case being broken is the reason i cannot start my engine, please correct me if i am wrong
i am looking for the cheapest place i will be able to purchase a new crank case and gasket (preferably of the internet through mail order)seen as i have broken the gasket seal, i have looked all over the internet and i am unable to find somewhere to purchase these two items. i am not sure of the year model although i am inclined that is between 1998 and 2003, i will also post a picture of the bike and hopefully someone would be able to identify this for me, if any of you are able to help with my bike problems i would be very much apprechiative! Many thanks,
