OK i know i need rings but is there anyway possible i could get the warranty to cover it? My dad told me if warranty didnt cover it i would just have to ride it smoking and carry 4 quarts of oil with me. I need lik a cover story or something like that. I changed the oil and it wasnt milky i hadnt sunk it or anything it just started smoking going down the road. the filter i took out like caved in. Also while i was riding it when it started smoking it sounded like the valves needed to be adjusted again, but i had that done like 2 days before this happened. i heard that that means theres no oil getting to the topend. Im kinda mad about the hole deal because i didnt drowned it. It just started smoking. If i was having fun and drowned it that would be a whole different story. Anyways ill try to get pics of the filter onj here tomorrow any "lies" would be helpfull on how to get Honda to fix it for free. I might just need to work on getting a BBK.

no everytime i change my oil i make sure that the filter is in right and the seala are good. Also i check the oil everytime i ride so what gives i honestly think that the filter made it do this. Do you think i should put the filter thats caved in and tell them that i dont know what happened just fix it. would they beleive that and yes it is a honda filter. I might put it in there and just tell them that it started smoking i didnt sink it or anything i was going down the road would they beleive me for sure. Because really thats what happened.

oil filter not the air filter. If the air filter had caved in i would have told them that i bought one a while back put it on and their supposed to come pre-oiled i guess there was a manufature error. i think that they will cover it or they can shove it up their A**
