It's old video. He explains himself, he didn't do a recallThat?s really not good at all. A hole in the engine block? How can that happen? Manufacturing defect?

That engine is toast. Conrods normally come out front or back. My guess is a valve made a bid for freedom. Would be interested in finding out what happened.
looking at his update video,he says BMW are saying broken conrod,or even little end break,which will explain why it's so high in the block.
I was wrong. Good to know what happened but in this day and age surprising. Some of the comments said something about he missed a recall? Plus at the beginning of the video he says it?s still restricted i.e running in. If so, it?s his own fault. J
he actually says the running in period is over. hence trying top speed otherwise hed be limited to 9k? but id guess he was just out of the run in.
thats the exact saem thing my s1k did at 120mph into a left hander on track, luckily no block damage for me. droped a cyl3 valve, but the exact same noise/ actions on the bike,

What was the problem on your engine? Did BMW ever say? J
