This is the oil filter union off my new Tracer 900 with 300 miles. Went to go change the oil and the filter became impossibly difficult to move. After I destroyed 3 filter wrenches, I gave up and called the dealer. They picked up the bike and hauled it over there and extracted this mess. All is well now (and in all fairness dealer picked up the tow, obvious warranty issue, and oil change)- but would you be concerned abut long term effects? I'm wondering if any metal debris made it through the return and into the engine? I know most of the damage happened upon removal but some had to have been present when the factory robot jammed this fucker on there
That along with the 80mm as delivered chain slack has me wondering how I lucked out and got the last bike off the assembly line Friday afternoon.
And yeah, I know, first world problems and all
