Default man, did i ever mess it up this time

i was going down the river, when all of a sudden it dies. what had aheppend is it over heated, then melted the rings to the cylinder wall. then i eventually got it to turn over. and by doing so it scratched the crap out of the piston, and the wall. the scrapes are so deep, its amazing. well, looks like i will be spending tons more money gettin git fixed. yay

The river was frozen, and i was going down it in about top end 4th. and i was slowing down to go around a turn, and it died. what had happened was it slowly leaked coolant out of an unsealed seal. and it over heated and melted everthing together, and scratched everything. or soemthin. but it is messed up. wheelie bar? lol, i love wheelies![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
