Unhappy Engine Seized

Hello I am a lurker but would appreciate anyone's help.

I’ll get straight to the point…

My Ninja 250 loss all her oil on the freeway while going about 75mph.

Pulled over immediately after hearing a pop and the bike only traveled 300 ft.

Not sure how long i traveled without oil though :/


The following day I used JB Weld to patch the hole where it leaked and I changed the filter and checked the screen for debris.

Shortly after adding fresh oil the motor made a horrible noise as I hit the starter and did a few turns but it seized and wouldn’t turn anymore.

Wondering what my options are for repair???

Or if any of you know of a wrecked pregen with a good motor please let me know.

This bike isn't worth much, but I enjoyed riding it and would like to have her running again.

Any help would be appreciated.
