I cracked a bearing... somehow... LOL and on my last oil change, I had plenty of particulate "sand" in my oil. I'm actually thinking of going back to my stock airbox and taking off the KKM for a bit. Which BTW has been regularly maintained, with cleaning and oiling. It could be my cold air feed from the ground.
