HALL OF SHAME
This page is for
all those of you with a less than abundant sense of mechanical sympathy, you know who you are, SHAME ON YOU!
Why struggle when
a hammer is to hand? CB750/4, gasket mating surfaces &
fins mullered. It got worse inside, cam cradle
threads completely stripped but still re-fitted.
“All old bikes
leak don’t they?” Aaaargh
Yup it’s the same
piston. Low oil pressure, seizure and decapitation of Royal Enfield single.
Tuned Benelli 500/4 - exhaust valve.
Four came out
like this one, over revved to valve bounce stage. Ouch
Ducati 900ss,
both valves snapped off & hammered into the head.
S shaped valves from another
Ducati, a 748 sp.
Change those
belts regularly, Desmo owners.
This is what a T120 con rod looks
like only 50 miles after a “professional” re-build.
Some people just shouldn’t go near
the inside of an engine. The bike looked stunning from the outside.
If your
BSA single starts knocking; STOP, then get it recovered or push it home!
This one
clearly didn’t do either until it seized solid!! More filings in the cases than
a machine shop, ouch.
Inspired by
the boys at Sidcup Motorcycle tyres,
nice one. See more filth
