Check your bike, it may have been tampered with.

[Hard Nut]

Friend of mine had his bike tampered with by who we think was his X-girlfriend:wacko:

On sat we had a spanner day at a friends home, tristan a good mate of mine said he was going to oil up his chain, next thing I hear..... check this out the spring clip on the joining link is missing, I had a look and noticed scratch marks on the remaining part of the link, didn't think to much about, thought it worked loose.

Sunday arvo he told me his neighbour came over early that day and said had seen someone in his carport late thursday night, thought it was a female he said, so tristan and I soon came to the conclusion that it had been removed with a screw driver maybe by his X......not sure of coarse.

So take note :- This could happen to you, so check your bike on a regular basis!!

PS....... Has anyone seen a chain come off at speed????

[Str8 Jacket]

Chains can come off if old or not maintained properly.

The story about the physcho ex has much more street cred though as well as being entirely possible.

Certainly does not pay to get on the wrong side of someone, and it does pay to have a bit of a check around.
I always wonder where people don't have the luxury of a garage in crowded cities where they park there bikes, in Eingland you youst to see them angle parked out on the street overnight.

Twice, one flew out the back and didn't do any damaged. The other wrapped around the front sprocket and cracked the engine casing pretty bad. Both were through not looking after the chain properly and a "she'll be right" attitude.

120kms on Hutt Road (SH2 part) by the Mermaid (cunts with scales) my GSX1100EZ lost its chain due to a lazy mechanic not folding over the front sprocket locking washer

I am so fuckin lucky I chose to wear my old MX boots that day...no reason just did....they saved my foot

Pictures of the ex-girlfriend or it's not true. :woohoo: She sounds interesting - obviously into bikes knowing where and what the circlip was.

It's a relevant comment though - there are some dogey people out there. When towing a trailer on the car, if I leave it unattended anywhere (supermarket etc) I always check the coupling before driving.

Tristan is a very hands on kind of rider, right up with maintenance and all, I believe the chain was not old and certainly didn't look dry either.

Psycho X still looks possible:crazy:

Yup, at about 70mph on an Aprilia Pegaso. Somehow it locked round the rear sprocket, locked the wheel, destroyed the tyre & a perfectly good pair of underpants. I have no idea how I did'nt go sliding down the road, the bike fish tailed lock to lock & I managed to stop upright but sideways. Pure luck & adrenalin. I no longer use chains with clips on a road bike.

R6 thats not the right attitude, "She'll be right" shit !! that is asking for trouble......which did happen to you. How's your maintenance on chains now??

Paranoid, however I always 'first parade' my bike before I get onto it. Indicators, brake lights, brakes, tyres etc... Touch wood I have yet to find a problem, but its one less thing I have to worry about when I twist the throttle open..:scooter:

Fairly religious. The first times on my 250's was due to not knowing what was needed to be done (cleain/lube/adjust). On my R6 it was due to being 'too poor to afford a replacement chain yet'.

By the way rather than quoting each person individually use the button to the right of the quote button - it adds those posts as quotes when you go to reply :niceone:

Nah I have that clip come off and the chain stay on for ages. I safety-wire them now.

Time for surveillance cameras setup in the carport somewhere?

[ajw_888]

PS....... Has anyone seen a chain come off at speed????

Yep...In a 250 proddy race at Bay Park, going into the first corner, mid pack, bikes everywhere. Just as I was braking and about to tip in, the chain came off the bike in front of me, I watched it flick up into the air and drop down in front of me...:eek5:...I thought where is it? this could be bad, tipped it and was waiting for me to hit and crash, but luckily nothing, it did get the pulse rate up.

A few years ago I went to visit his immortal highness The_Dover. Cowpoos was there.

Riding home along the Southern motorway in heavy traffic at about 120kph the bike coughed and cut out. Managed to pull the clutch in, indicate and make it to a slip road without going under a truck. Thought the bike was fucked until a closer inspection showed that the fuel tap had been turned off by some cunny funt.

Cool! :rofl:

All is good with that crazy aus chic now..........she's gone bye bye's.

Just replace the spring clip link with a rivet link. They are riveted on and don't come off.

Spring clip came off my chain a couple of times on my race bike. No reall explaination-sometimes shit happens

Had that happen too, I put a smear off RTV on the clip once its fitted and never had trouble with it again
