Didi he say why it let go? Methinks to much time on the rear wheel has something to do with it.Front cylinder seems to starve when subjected to long wheelies.

There's an old joke about why the Holden stopped during the Bathurst race. Seems it had an electrical problem - after a conrod came out of the block and knocked the alternator off.

Only reason Rods Fly, is excessive wear/clearance, and high RPM. Trust me. I know from methanol fire breathers.:2guns:

Nope. Lubrication failure can do it (big end seizes first - or little end sometimes). I've known them break if a valve hits a piston , too.
