Hi guys 1st time posting so if I need to remove/add anything let me know. Recently had my Honda CBX250RS (which has been customed into a cafe racer style) serviced at a mechanic as the right hand engine cover had a micro-crack in it causing it to leak oil. They welded it up and it all seemed to be going fine until 2 days later the bike lost all power going up a hill and does not start up again. When I go to start it I hear a clunking noise which was not there before (sounding like the piston is rubbing on something maybe?) and the bike turns over fine, but will not start up (Have tried crash starting it also and engine turns over with that same noise but won't start). I have established that the engine hasnt seized as will lurch if started in 1st gear. Have little experience with the mechanical side of bikes so thought I would ask you lads. Am trying to get some ideas on what could be wrong and if the mechanic is liable?
Any help is appreciated
