Well, after riding kinda crooked after my accident I found out what happened.

The carnage!

and I thought I was the lucky one....you should have seen the motor mount bolt I pulled out. It was bent a little in the shape of an S.

That sucks, luckily our great frames are pretty cheap. Maybe its just me, but it seems like there have been quite a few bent/broke/cracked frames lately. I dont know its probably just 2-3 other people but it seems weird I guess. Hope you get it fixed soon.:hammer:

Already got it in a new frame and didn't cost a dime to ship!

Thanks Jacob!

I know of 3 broken frame, 2 of them were unusable. CDRookie, mine, and Gus from in Alabama. Gus's had a weird break back above the pegs. I think he got his welded and was good to go.

Go fast, turn right!! That frame looks setup for that! Or maybe you could have just leaned over alittle, and not even noticed it.

You should have traded it for a local CRF450!!! Think he would have known??
