My friend and his son and I tear down our 2005 Fusion(4,500 miles) and my switchback(2,800 miles) 900 motors last nite and found my 900 switchback 900 exhaust port show crack hair or nick hair.
see pictures.
My friend's motor blow out and he said NEVER over 175 Temp since his new sled.
I will get new pistons from 2006 900 cc and will measure thick wall piston compare our old pistons then I will post ..

Dont get spooked Pepsi but that not an unheard of issue with 05 900's. I have seen this exact same thing several times....thats why mine has the 06 pistons..
The 06 piston does indeed have a stronger skirt and thicker ring land area to prevent breakage. It's not uncommon in other brands either...the ZR9 is known to have skirt cracking at higher mileage as well. We replaced a set in a buddy of mines sled just this past fall after 5000 miles...both were cracked and about to fail.Yeah, well, those things do spook me. Why can't I just get a normal engine? LOL. The old 4-stroke bikes we have are 35 and 17 years old and they've never needed engine servicing. I can't get a bloody new engine that's been known to last longer than 2 yearsDont get spooked Pepsi but that not an unheard of issue with 05 900's.
