My ankle was kinda itchy and i though it was a misquito or something, no turns out it was a really hot pice of metal from me griding the frame that flew off and melted to my skin.  bled to no end.

next step, prep and paint, and about a 1000 bucks worth of parts from summit and then its time to put it back together.

Yeah its bad, that lob is destroyed, most of the other lobes show signs of riding on one side or the other of the lobe.  At least one of the bearings needs to be replaced.  So now because of that and some water that my dad noticed were tearing the whole motor down.  Which means I better get off my a** and make another 300 bucks before I leave for college in 3 weeks.
