Default My bike is terminal after AR07

Seems like my bike has become terminal on the way back from AR07.

Sounds like someone is bashing a hammer in the engine when i accelerate. Indications go to faulty oil pressure switch (as there is enough oil in the engine), failed bearings.

Got me back though, slowly. Not to bothered as the bike has ticked to many negatives and its going.

Not happy.

Its a shame as its a great sounding bike which seems to go very well! Looked well balanced as well - especially leaning against any surrounding objects!

Onwards and upwards!

Bu**er mate, sorry to hear about this.

Looks like the AR07 claimed two bikes then .....maybe we should have done a dance or something?

Next year, I believe ceremonial sacrifices should prepared to appease the gods of broken bikes

Ooh, how's that going to impact the insurance claim? Makes things a bit complicated I imagine, hope it all works out.

Probably not for TSM, no What was the other casualty, I've missed that one... Not including bikes that were actually broken before they arrived, I assume.
