Ouch.....

The worst I ever saw was at Bernie's wreckers back in the UK in the 90's.
It was a CBR1000....that measured about 1-1.2m long....overall....Looked kinda like cars that have been squashed iton cubes....
The guy had apparently (according to the police report) tried hanging,slashing his wrists and overdoseing...each time he was found and 'saved'...
So this time he went for a ride...you might know in England there are some old single lane bridges made entirely of stone....very thick and solid....The police reckon he hit it at about 100mph....
The engine, carbs and even the rear wheel had shattered from the force of the impact .

Let me guess rockhard, the owner said it just stopped without any warning. Years ago I had a guy bring in an RG250 the "just conked out and rolled to a stop" when we pulled it down it had one blown big end and the other cylinder was missing the whole bottom half of the conrod, but i hadn't made any strange noises.

Had a guy come in the other day with his Hayabusa, "It's making a weird noise when I push it backwards." The chain was guitar string tight, then i found this.

That looks more like shearing off than just wear and tear shadow

[rock hard]

last time i saw a sprocket like the last front one the customer told me his clutch was rooted

[80s freak]

There's still 3 good ones. I can't see the problem. Definantly breaking teeth rather than wearing them out. What was it off?
