I sealed mine like it said to in the how-to section and so far im satisfied. There is an aftermarket leak shield, Highlifter and honda makes one. Its pretty much your choice what you want to do. Good Luck

mine did the exact same thing but it never smoked but knocked a lot. This all happend within a month that i bought it. They told me the same thing that mine had water damage. Well once they took it apart my piston were scared. So that led to a hold re built engine which didn't need to be done. When I brought them the bike I told them that it was the connecting rod that was making the noise and they told me it was the pistons. So I let them do what they want a replace the engine. They never changed the connecting rod until after the whole thing was put back together and it was still knocking. So need less to say it cost me 1300.00 for a bike that was a month old. They also told me water got in the engine through the out put shaft seal which was leaking. So take it for what it is worth but they are trying to screw you like they screwed me. Sorry for the long post

So the warrenty didn't cover it? I know my motor doesn't have water in it. And if for some reason they say it does I am going to be pissed.

No the warranty didn't cover it...Belive me I was pissed

Pissed at who?????????????.................sorry man but you put the oil filter in backwards. Bet you don't make that mistake again!!

Better luck next time, but it isn't Honda's fault. We need to take responsibility for our actions. I don't want to lecture but it makes me upset that you knew it was your fault and still tried to screw your dealer.

I'll stop now, sorry about your luck and I hope everything works out for ya!!

I had every right to be pissed at honda because I had never even changed the oil in it so how could i've put the filter in backwards. This all happend within a month of the purchase of the 4 wheeler. But who cares its over with. Worrying is just like rocking it gives you something to do but gets you no where
