Ivan's VMCC RD2

[Ivan]

Yeah ok,
Well sometimes things break down,
Its part of racing I guess

Ivan from what I can tell you had a collapsed bearing in the sprocket carrier. When it collapsed your sprocket decided to dig into your swingarm and lock up the rear, thus finishing your race. Before it collapsed it would have done 2/3rds of stuff all to your bikes performance. Maybe 1 or 2 kph top speed at the most. Its just a product of poor bike maintenance So please, stop going on about how your "mechanical" problem was slowing you down.

Well said!! excuses excuses. I do the same though, I like to convince myself that problems like that were the cause, so I don't have to face the reality that I was simply beaten haha

I do admit I was beaten like I have said I am annoyed in myself and in nothing that Dad does, the one issue im having is how under powered my bike is tho to anyone else in a straight line considering im cornering and exiting faster than a few guys in frotn of me
