That water pump cavity CAN be repaired. Clean the cavity out perfectly....whatever method works for you, but it has to be PERFECT. Then shoot it down with a quality brake cleaner. Then you JB Weld it with the 24 hour set formula. You will have to sit with it and keep tapping the JB Weld in order to maintain the shape that you want because it will tend to be liquid for 2-3 hours. Oh yeah....wet your finger with water when you tap on it to maintain the shape you want. You'll be amazed how good and durable the repair will be. I hate doing these kind of repairs (because it's always the last option) but it works fantastically well and worth the time. I found watching a movie that's 3 hours long and just hold the part and keep an eye on it until it firms up makes the whole job not so bad really. The results are absolutely worth it.

sand the cover with some haavy grit sand paper and remake the area with j an be weld. Done it on many vw cases for water erosion and it works great and pretty permanent. totally savable. just make it clean anr rough before you apply it. after the j and b weld drys you shape it like bondo by sanding it.

You can totally use that cover from the looks of it. It's not damaged on the gasket surface. Clean the flakes out and get down to good solid material. It's fine. You can use some JB weld to smooth out the surface if you want. More importantly, Change that water pump shaft bearing and shaft seal! 90% of the time they are bad and if not replaced you will end up with a milkshake in the transmission. That's probably why you have no drain plug in the one motor and white powder (dried out coolant and trans oil mix) coming out of the other motor.

I've repaired several engines in conditions like this, and just as others have mentioned, JB Weld does an excellent job at filling in craters like this. Clean and prep the area good, wire wheel it down and apply the JB Weld. Then after it's dried, use a dremel to shape it. If you feel a little more daring, you can try to aluminum braze it. It's aluminum brazing rod that's applied with a propane torch with MAPP gas. I'm sure you can find it at any home supply store or welding supply. Jost follow the instructions carefully and maybe watch a couple videos on how its done. Also, maybe practice on some scrap aluminum in the same condition. You can do it though, it's easy. Then you'll have to clean it up with a dremel or die grinder. If you mess up on it, don't sweat it, you were thinking of replacing it anyway, so this would be good practice. Good luck.

Ebay has all parts to restore your bike. I had the 85 250R, and two sore points on it was the alternator was toast and clutch cover, they were made of magnesium. Riders back in the 80s didnt use distilled water mixed with coolant even though the cycle mags warned the to do it. I got my beast to run and it did wheelies and screamed like a banshee. The pj carb was the easiest to work on back then, its on my 89 250R and it runs like a top. Good bike, if you restore it correctly, they can run up to $4000 grand on the market, the market for mid life crisis folks who love vintage dirt bikes. Ufo has your plastics, Pit Replica has your correct seat cover, Ebay has all of the hardware. Good luck!

Cold War Motors repaired a cylinder with JB weld in a Buick straight 8 engine and it worked, at least so far for moving the car around on the grounds. Don't see why it wouldn't work to repair the walls of that water pump housing.

well you sure don't want an engine failure coming off the face of a jump ....but perhaps we tig weld this one and jb weld the other one ? good enough for a cylinder wall , should be fine in a water jacket 👍....thank you for the feedback

I would just live with that it’s probably the best original I’ve seen Just ask TNT MOTO he’s also seen a few Unfortunately they are made from magnesium up until 1987 and as far as I know they are unrepairable Some people use jb weld with good results Love your videos Keep up the good work 👍

Good to hear , it didn't look horrible and I thought with the good gasket surface it was repairable . I just wondered why people are forking over 500-600 for the aluminum ones if these are repairable ...pocket change I guess :)....thank Chris I appreciate it . Nice thumbnail , there is a nice 86 CR500 in my area for sale ...hmmm
