| full metal jacket I was out to day on my 999S and it decked out over a large wallow in the road and did the sump in, you know the bit I'm on about, the end casting of the filter, I was lucky,I didnt know what I'd done till I got home. But it could of been so much worse, the signs were there, the noise was there but I thought it was the fairing touching down,and the rear tyre slid abit but it had just rained, Anyway I did something about it, so next time it hits down it wont leave oil over my back tyre,not that it's that common. I armour plated it, A 4mm shield around it made out of hard wearing phoserous bronze, If you have a deep sump like me and you dont want to take the bus home or have a crash, you might want to do the same mod to your bike, so heres some pictures for you,   Last edited by bike mad : 23-Sep-2006 at 00:13.  |
