That sucks..........
Any damage to the rest of the motor? That generation of R6 has a rep for spun bearings :-(
Did he tell you want all he needs to do or how ugly it's gonna be?

err......... In a bad case of a spun rod bearing you can end up with a rod going through the side of the block. Obviously you did not get that lucky.
On an upside, if there is any valve damage it should be limited to just the cylinder where the bearing failed.
I'd see what he wanted to fix it and in the meanwhile price some used motors off the r6-forum.com, etc.

I would not fix it.... You should be able to score a motor for 1/2 of the cost of repair and we could install it in a few hours (and six packs).
