Default blown Raptor motor

Sup fellas? My 2002 Raptor motor blew up this weekend after just 45 minutes of riding in the dunes south of florence. I'm hoping somebody here might have an idea as to what would have caused this. I have a small hole in the bottom of the engine on the left side. At first I thought it was just the starter, as it was not engaging then a few seconds later all the oil dumped out of the bike.

Sounds like the oneway might have fallen apart and/or the timing chain. Pull the side cover and investigate.

Sounds like a rod if you have a hole in the engine. Other wise I would guess a gasket went and blew your oil out and then it blew. ??? ANy way I hope you figure it out and its not as big as a problem as mine is.
