I had a jug off one of destry abbots bikes that broke a rod at wot 4th gear. It was ugly. And was saved
Cases are same way

Great, I'm hoping mine can be saved. I can't imagine it was too bad, certainly not as bas as one of Destry Abbott's bikes. lol I was on an mx track, so not going too fast. Man, I never want to hear a bike make that sound again. It was ugly.

Not too sure what the crankshaft specs are. I imagine that they are stock--spec, but you can shoot him an e-mail and he'll likely get back to you quickly with an answer.

Wish I had known about sending my engine to this guy. Place I sent it to has had mine for three years. Trying to be patient. I think my patience has run out.
