Thanks for your thoughts, they are in line with my own at this time. I have already started removing farkles to mount (whoa!) on the 08 to get it ready for the MSTA national in June.

It's always good to have a spare bike...or two...   8)

Both bolts sheared, looks like bent valves in 3 and 4 and dropped in 2.

Buckets for 3 &4 are way low #2 was way high

Well, that is unfortunate. Still no clear cause though? The journals that show in that photo look fine- no galling or anything else obvious.

Unfortunately, we weren't able to recover the posts AC (after crash).  We all lost out on that.  I lost a significant amount of posts as well.
