I had a Bultaco 250cc Pursang in my old MX days do that to a rod. Pretty sure it didn't have that kind of power. Grin

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Yep, the cross head.

That's quite a smooth bend, pretty spectacular.
I suspect the rod bearing on the crank failed, seizing to the crank journal, and the other 5 or 7 or ? cylinders were more than happy to continue turning the crank to bend that rod.
