Whats the average life of a 4-stroke single cylinder quad engine?
Mines a kawasaki Mojave 250. It is water cooled.
When it was 6mo3days old (3days out of warranty)I had to bore it and put a new oversize piston in it. It ran great, didn't use oil untill about 6 months ago.
It slowly began to consume oil. Now it's at the point where I need to rebuild it again as the oil consumption is getting out of hand.
It has a box between the airfilter and carb that is where the crankcase vents into. It's filling this box up with oil. I assume that the blowby is bringing the oil into this box.
The quad is very low geared, 5th gear is an underdrive! So the engine is always screaming.
I do ride it alot and would not be suprized if it had somewhere near 20K miles on it.
