Gotta love a little bit of unplanned maintenance!

I put my chamber back on on Tuesday night and noticed the stand didnt flip back up past the header. I went back down to the arch on wednesday night to have a play around with it and noticed my back wheel was a bit on the p155! to be honest I noticed this a while back but didnt think too much of it (it wasnt as bad as this!)

On closer inspection, the cause was this!!!!!

So I took the engine out... and its this bad

Great huh?????

So now I gotta strip the whole bike down and send it to mike phoenix!

I know somebody that can jig and repair your frame. He's done a couple for me. If you're interested I'd be happy to supply you with a contact number.

The Viet bodge faeries can have that sorted at minimal cost. They'll even spray a new two tone paint job for a few more extra bucks. :lol:

That's the second one I have seen now that has split like that. The one I have(customers) is a Viet bodge one and was prolly the result of a ringing job.
