Default crank case

So i racing sat. Aug.30th at a local track and on the third lap i hit the finish line jump and when i landed my foot must of hit the shifter and i bent the shaft, took a chunk out of my case. so after the race day was over i was talking to some of the other racers and they said the only was i would be able to race this bike the rest of the season without getting another LH case would be to use QUICK STEEL so i went to an auto parts store and picked up a tube of it, its like devcon so i mixed it up and put it over the hole and waited for about 4 hrs. and then came back to check on it and it was as hard as steel so i started the bike no oil was coming out of the motor but i could still feel air breathing out of the motor from the top part of the shaftso i put some more on there and hopefully it works untill the race season is over.

ill keep everyone updated on what happens

I don't see it as bullying. I see it as helping the elderly. The more I give him a hard time, the fresher his brain stays because he has to think of come backs.

Keep a close eye on your oil level!!!!!!!! i just got through replacing my cases this spring on mine due to my chain coming off and busting around the clutch shaft I got a set of used cases off ebay for around $150.. you can get a new set for around $300. just keep an eye on your oil, keep a light left foot, and just remember, if you ride on hills, the faster it will dump!! good luck with it! keep us posted!!
