Bottom end looks good with plenty of oil just kickin it
Im prety sure it bypassed the gasket and went straight out the exhaust, it explains why it quit on me and why it missed a little later in the day.

They also aint hard on the juice for 30 seconds through every gear
Hopefully after sanding the shit out of it it wont leak anymore
I expecting blown gaskets on this motor I just want it to stop pissing coolant while im not even using the juice lol
The only real long term fix will be to O-ring it.

The ONLY part of what you said here that is remotely correct is the o-ring part...

Hey...did you wash the bike before you took the engine apart, or are you just keeping your fingers crossed? You should have atleasted took a butter knife and scrape the sand spooge off so it doesn't fall into the crank.
