Yep, same as Chris but RHS.

Laid it down at Hall Bends and didnt turn it off straight away as I was looking to get back on and go but must have been horizontal for too long and burnt the bearings out, found lumps of the fibre bearing runner in the oil pump housing after it started knocking its tits off two weeks later
