Doh!

[Magua]

I think the pictures are self explanatory.

[bugjuice]

d'oh!
so what did you learn here then?
side from how to split the case

[Magua]

Haha, well firstly I shouldn't be tripping over crap to get into my garage and secondly if the fairings aren't on the bike, THEY CAN'T BREAK! :Punk: Especially since they are new :yes:

[James Deuce]

Errr Bugger. Did you try to kill it, or did it try to escape?

[pyrocam]

oh dear oh dear.

how did you... but what if... how .. whatsisi.. geber...

how?

[vifferman]

I think the pictures are self explanatory.
Yes, but a better series would have been: Before...During...After.
Or even a short movie clip.

Perhaps you could re-enact the tipover for us, documenting it properly this time?

[MSTRS]

The word 'Bugger' springs to mind, closely followed by several of it's shorter cousins. Split case seems to be ott damage for a fallover of that nature?

The case was pretty screwed from previous falls.

I from my SCU experience can see that the motorcycle was actually on its sidestand, which was in fact on the small block of wood to facilitate the maintaining of the motorcycle easier. This of course put the motorcycle in a more upright position, making work carried out on the left side of the bike easier. Whilst this maintainance was underway, by the look of the tools lying about I would say you were either tightening or losening a bolt (probably the later), when the torque excerted caused small movements in the bike, ultimatly causing it to overbalance and fall to its final resting place on the ground, midway between the garage entrance and driveway.
From the photographs I would estimate the bike was stationary at the time of the accident. There looks as though there could possibly be some damage from a previous spill on that same side, but I could be wrong there.



crosstraining as a CSI now?

[Magua]

Close but no cigar speedmedic. The wood was used at a previous date, worked fine. I actually tripped on the wood this time while pushing the bike into the garge....woops.

[DingDong]

Bad luck... and quick thinking, thanks for taking some pics before picking it up not many of us would have thought of that!

[zeRax]

.... Damn >_<
bl dude

My first thoughts were "Oh SHIT!" "Arrr crap...wait....Kb thread oportunity :devil2: ".

[Pancakes]

To be an annoying optimist, it's probably lucky the weck case was found like this instead of being stuck with a sieve for a block in the middle of hicks-ville. Looks like it was ready to tag out?

[Zed]

I think the pictures are self explanatory.O dear Magua, if I recall correctly hasn't this bike been nothing but trouble since you bought it? :sherlock:

[Phurrball]

Um...






Problems... :eek5:





My sympathies.

[riffer]

O dear Magua, if I recall correctly hasn't this bike has been nothing but trouble since you bought it? :sherlock:

I reckon. Lousy luck mate.

On the other hand, Knead-it is cheap. Pull the cover off, wash it out and make it nice and clean, then knead-it the sucker.

Make sure you don't put so much on the inside that the inside fouls with the cover.

Oh - and do I need to remind you about draining the oil first?

Send Frosty a pm if you need help - he's an expert with Knead-it...

[Magua]

Where does one find, "Knead it"?

[Zed]

Where does one find, "Knead it"?It's a Selleys product. Try Carters, Placemakers, or the like.

What bike do you want next Magua, surely you've given this some forethought? :wait:

[James Deuce]

Magua, I know this is a bit "soft" but every time I see you start another thread about that evil heap of crap, errr, beautiful FZR of yours, I just want to smash the piggy bank and buy you a new bike. I hope you get something sorted soon.

[Magua]

Mmm, new bike. I've definately put some thought into it. I'd use it for commuting to university everday so something with good petrol consumption. Maybe an fxr, I've ridden Indy's and man it's wicked for a 150. I like the power of a 250 though, a red bandit or perhaps a zeal (evil yamaha, not so sure). I go back into full time work at the end of the year, hopefully I'll be able to work something out then.

Believe it or not, before the electrics died and I dropped it ( :nono: ), it was nearly road worthy! Rear shock, rear brake light, front brake caliper and I think that was about it.

[R6_kid]

fuken tard... after all the work i've done on it you fuck it up... then drop it :rofl:

btw you must have a 3LN rear end... Spencer at Atomic has a selection of 3LN shocks and they look as if they are gonna be right for you (the bottom end)

[Magua]

Did you get a price while you were there?

[erik]

The fzr engine is pretty similar to the zeal engine; that cover houses the alternator and doesn't have any oil behind it, so you won't have to drain the oil.
I think you've just gotta seal it to stop dust getting in. Also it'd be good to make sure it hasn't warped the cover enough for the alternator to rub on the spinney magnetic bit.
