Oh that tub of the flywell crankshaft nut thingies :devious
ps that would of probably been funny if I was a little more clued up on what things are called on the bike:jack
Don't you just love it when Tim ********* his way around engine terminology? :devious
Scott- Tut Tut!! Did all that work yesterday and you bottled it, terrible mate. :eatcorn
Not that I can talk, been on holiday all week and not ridden the bike. :jack
It's died and been resurrected more times than Dracula in a horror movie. LOL
Scott will tell you all about it, after all it's his monster!!
Moggi,
I am the owner of the aforementioned "Frankie"..........
Frankie is a 2000 RSV Mille but was sold by a dealer an "R" variant, the only remotely "R" bits are the Ohlins suspension.
After 1000 miles the sprag failed and was repaired with BMW, Yamaha, Ducati & Aprilia Parts.
The bike ran for over 40 minutes on its paddock stands with no problems , then went for a run up to Lakeside to meet AMB67 , when things started to go wrong again and on reaching Lakeside the bike broke down again.
This time the flywheel bolt had sheared off and the flywheel had spun o the crank destroying itself and damaging the crank.
Fankie is short for Frankenstein on account of all the "differant" manufacturer parts involved in the repairs
