Bike fallen off Abba Stand.
$*£&&!
Just had the abba stand give way backwards while I was trying to twist off the top yoke nut. Full weight of the engine / frame landed on the oil filter, it's snapped the filter mounting bolt right off  Is it new engine time?

Re: Disaster :(
Hmmm you might be able to remove that part from the motor. I'll have a look at some spare cases I've got here.
If not, I've got some spare cases here...
