It’s a loooooong story. That machine was given absolutely everything, more money and time then most. Lost a lot. Best I can hope for is this time is different.

Holy s***
I thought that thing was buried in a secret location never to be seen again

Its came back. It always comes back !Holy s***
I could tell the second I saw it it had a ton of aftermarket stuff. I gutted everything that they hadn’t already. It’s getting a new dash even to get rid of the holes they put in it. I’m really not super concerned with it. Would it surprise anybody for me to suspect insurance fraud on it? I found evidence of ATF in the crankcase.......
Anyone want to give me a back story?Oh f***! @Greasemonkey I recognize that rig and I’m not sure you want to put a ton of money in it

Well... it went through clutches no matter what, has aftermarket clutches in it. We tried everything. @snuffnwhisky which is a f***ing magic man got some fit up trying to help. I’m sure it was because of the intake hose being loose from factory and allowing dirt in. Found this out when it started smoking real bad. Took out #1 cylinder. It needs bored out and oversized rings. That god damned thing aimed itself at anything it could to wreck itself, I swear it was a devil machine. 4500 from payoff on it had to be transferred into my new machine, I’m still paying for it.
Had one before it that was flawless but it took on water before that was a known problem, it was #2 now on #3 and it’s been solid. Your machine is one of the most well known machines out there, put everything into it, beyond most. Nearly left Pioneer because of it.
Didn’t think it would ever show back up, so I apologize. I’ll help with what I can Pm me please.

Like I said I already got it running. As soon as I get parts we should be able to get it back together. It came with a brand new set of plastics, bumper, stuff like that. I have to pull the engine back out to seal it up and will borescope the cylinders, check bottom end, clean out the clutches and service every serviceable item on it. I’m not as worried as most might be

Now I'm kind of sorry that I didn't let this thread just die. I was just trying to help a local guy out. @CumminsPusher is the one of the resident gurus on here and one hell of a guy, when I talk about him to my local pioneer guys its always "that guy up north" did this, or that. I'm guessing if it could have been fixed he would have done it but, I wish you luck @Greasemonkey. Keep us posted.
No worries @tjoreo. It’s actually kind of nice knowing the back story. If I knew how to post a video I’d post the one I have of it running last week

If the update hasn't been done, you might want to go ahead and do it while it's apart.
You will need #1, #8, #21 and I would also get every bolt in that assembly. The bolts are really soft and stretch easy plus I know they have been in and out several times. If you use a torque wrench on them, double check the In# to Nm conversion in the manual. I've have found them to be off on some and the Nm setting or lowest is what you want to use.
The #1 clutch update housing adds a lot of oil cooling to the outer clutch. It was a free update through Honda and you might be able to still get it free if you have a good dealer.
Most of that machines problems were burning up clutches until the boot came off and trashed a cylinder.

Ya I’ll take the VIN to my dealer and see. Might be wise to just take the engine to them while I have it out and let them do that part
