Well I was just putting the SXR700 away after doing some clutching adjustments and had her up on the track stand clearing the snow out when I sensed a shudder and then BANG...... The track blew.

It took out my 2x4 track stand and sent one piece 100 ft. (over the car thankfully) and into the bush!! Glad I wasn't standing behind it.

The track was studded but it didn't seem to let go at a stud???

The front heat exchanger looks like it had seen a stud before (gouge) but it didn't look like a fresh wound and so far no leaks that I can tell. I might find another exchanger in better shape and do a swap while I have it all apart. Anybody have one??

It was running so well and I had the clutching dialed right in.

Oh well, into the shop it goes.
 
I FOUND A BIG HOLE IN THE TRACK ON MINE . FROM STUDS :bling: SO I DID NOT CHANCE IT I PUT ON A NEW ICERIPPER 1.25 . NOW I CAN MOVE INSTED OF SPINNING
 
yea they are a hell of a project to change i was gunna do one then i had it welded an it still ended up leakin so i jus bought a hole nother chassis otherwise i was just gunna part the whole thing out and start over
