I was lubing the throttle cables tonight when I noticed a small circular crack in the crankcase just below a bolt below the carb. Bike only has 400 miles on it and I really dont want it in the shop for weeks in the middle of summer. Much else having my brand new bikes crankcase ripped appart. Doubt if it will ever be the same.

Crappy pic, but I tried....

I can't see it. However, it doesn't really matter. If there is a crack in the crankcase you need to have it taken care of. You may not want to lose a couple of weeks of the summer but it would be worse to lose the bike forever.
It will be covered by warranty. Just take it in and have it fixed right and fixed now.
