    Angry check out what this kid did!!!!

    He ran this bike with no bearings so the races dug into the shaft... same thing on the bottom. i hope that groove won't interfere with the new bearings. i was going to put new tapered bearings on, but i'm afraid they won't slide over some parts of the shaft because the shaft is a little thicker right next to the worn out groove area... some people! the whole bearing kit is only $10 and maybe a 15 minute job!

    yea i hear ya there man. my brother's 124 had the rear carrier welded to the frame. when the bearings went i had to get it off. i ended up messing up the frame then i had to weld up the frame. what a mess the trike was. the tranny was a rigged up and it ended up messing up stuff so we put a us 90 engine in it. trust me bud i know wht you are feeling.

    If you do keep it, I'd weld it up and file it down flat again. It will be fine with new bearings.

    Some people just want to ride regardless or how ignorant they are....

    I have always wondered what motivates people to ruin bikes?? Do you think they are just so dumb they can not consider the consequences of their actions?

    $10 and 15 minutes would have made the kid a little more money and gave him a much nicer ride! AND would not have ruined a perfectly fine part
