have a friend running a 125 his kid has broke two cranks in two weeks what is the fix ?????

Is the motor stock or is it heavily modified?
Is this a true Xtreme or is it one of the knock offs such as Baja?

Answering these two questions will help others on this site answer your question.

Stock cdi ? Dropped the rev limiter ? What damage occurred to the cases or jug when the parts scattered ? Xtreme has a six month parts and labor warranty on engines (the complete bike) with no internal mods,purchased from and Aut. Dealer . Greg

This guy hasn't posted any answers to the questions. My guess would be that it's one of those costco bikes because of all the Typhoon reviews and problems that I've seen not one had a problem with the crank unless the motor was modded up. Either that or he got one of a few.

sorry gust got back to you it has some mods it brakes the end off the crank on the clutch side where the splines are

**Ride1Rob** · 10-12-2007, 03:26 PM

What exact mods are done to it?

if it has the crank mounted clutch it is not an xtreme it is a copy. the xtreme motor does not have the clutch mounted on the crank nut the baja does.

well there is a centrifugal clutch on the crank on it and it is an extreme there is a clutch on the trainy input shaft also
it has 15:1 piston a little porting cdi and a cam
it will crank for about two laps

Bashing the Xtreme as having a junk crank with the mod you claim (15 to 1 compression) is very immature . It seems your buddys lack of experience in engine building has caused the problem.Common sense will tell you that if you beef the top as much as you claim and do nothing to the bottom end you will scatter parts. It seems redundant to spend the money for the mods you claim and spend nothing on the bottom end . We have zero problems with our Xtreme TY125 as many others,and if we did i am sure Xtreme would honor the free labor and free parts warranty for six months. I am aware that there was problems with them when they first hit the market,but they have steeped up to the plate to correct them. Greg
