Cannondaleriders

Scariest part was calling Pops and telling him I just rolled a $16000 truck...

ooo man seeing all this destruction makes me not want a dale! looks like they go through head's alot and just randomly start on fire!

Yea we're running out of destruction so now we are showing cars and such:D

Well sister insists it never leaked a drop before it went.When I came to tow it there was only a gallon on ground.I have never seen one so bad.Wrecked the fan,pulley,belts,scraped radiator and of course new pump.She said she heard noise but thought a cat got in there and she didnt want to look:(

This truck was owned by her for 16yrs.213000 mi so I replaced all the parts.Start it up and it sounded terrible.2 dead cylinders.Adjust valves(all were tight)runs like a charm.Gets warm and right when thermostat opened blew all coolant out the over flow.Headgasket!Head was warped so bad they had to bend it straight and mill it so far I had to shim it.$300 and 15 hrs at least(partly my incompetence)later it is running great.

Havent had to work on a vehicle in long time.It sucks.Leaning over the thing and grease and contorting to work on it.Well thats what brothers are for.Shops wanted around $2000 for repair.Another view of pump where fan mounts.The bearings were laying on skidplate.None left in pump at all.

Then don't buy one! hahahaha, that means more for someone that will ride the thing like it was built for!

Make sure you stay away from Honda ,Yamaha ,Cannondale suzuki,cars,trucks and everything else mechanical to because they all are getting thrown in on this thread. LOL

back on it the dale destruction, here is a early 02 cannibal with low hours on it, bent the intakes, broke the intake cam, cam chain tensioner was broke, cam chain was streched, cam chain slides were gone, rinding on metal, intake valves hit the piston, It will run again though,

cam chain

hhmmm...if you didnt want to roll the truck..maybe dont drive like a teenager?????....
