Is this common on this bike?

Mains are pretty tuff, but.. if its a 98 or 99 model 996 then there were some issues with flywheels coming off or loose, that kills the mains.

its the only time i remember seeing them knackered. there was a recall for the flywheel to be re-torqued but lots 'slipped through'

either way got to be worth splitting the cases and putting new mains and shells in.


748RS race bike (well, 853 but who\'s counting!)
999S road bike,
