Help! I know what broke but not what it is or how to fix other than I 'feels' $$$$

[BusaBill03]

Loose chain on '03 Busa popped & got jammed. It snapped off the part that houses where the clutch pedal attaches to motor area. (See pics)

You’re right. Much $$$$$
New case or a very good welder

How would I go about finding a good welder? Not riding is killing me. I was hoping to hear a weld would hold. Im 54. I ride a lot but I don't race or bang gears aggressively.

It's white aluminum and a bitch to weld....but can be done and it's not supporting much weight so will be ok to weld.

Fleabay probably has a bunch of those covers too.

Wait, doesn't that piece bolt on? I don't think it is part of the engine case itself.

Take the slave support off to be sure u didn’t bust any other pieces, alotta times the water pump gets destroyed by the chain too. But it looks like u just broke a cover, not the case.

Think this is a bolt on part. As stated above, inspect everything in there for damage!

I agree. If I’m looking at the picture right, that’s the cover I had to take off to install the pro shift star thing in there.

The case is broken. The shift shaft is supposed to be sealed inside that sleeve and the sleeve is supposed to be molded into the case. What a PITA. There may be a top and bottom end to the case if you replace it. If so you wouldn't need to replace the whole thing but yeah, it will be costly. The labor to rebuild will cost a few too.

It's a bolt on piece.

Thanks guys. Im gonna head out in a little while & get in/under her to get better look now that I have somewhat clearer pic. If I have quests, I'll be back. Ride safe.

 

[BusaBill03]

Here's a better 'before' pic of what broke off.

 

[nintastio]

You have to take the water pump off to get that cover off, but it shouldn't be expensive to replace. In the pictures I posted above, the piece not attached to the engine is the part you broke, It's just from the back side. I didn't have a pic on hand from the front. And the pic of the engine case is with it removed, and the water pump goes in the hole to the left of it.

Oh dang that's not good news. Definitely need to split the case now.

Prob not a diy project. And gonna hurt the wallet. I'm sooo depressed.

Read through the service manual and see if it is something you would feel comfortable doing. I've never done more than install exhaust or fairings on a motorcycle but currently the engine is sitting on the floor in my garage. Just depends on mechanically inclined you are.
