Re: I knew I shouldn't have...

I think Vista is too complicated for you. You should reformat your PC,
install Ubuntu, go to the Ubntu forums.

Ummm, I already am running Ubuntu on 3 of my computers Bill =) You're a
little late with that suggestion. About, 10 months late matter of fact.

So if you are already using Ubuntu on 3 of your computers, why troll here?
For your other problem, before installing Vista on your motorcycle, you
should have applied WD40. Then you wouldn't have had those piston problems!

Stephan,

Are you sure you didn't suffer from solar flares after accidentally
installing Sun Solaris? ;-)

BTW, what did cause that damage? Looks pretty nasty. :(

First off, it's the valves that are broken. The piston is just collateral
damage as a result of what happens when a piston slams into a broken
valve. =)

Secondly, I said I run Ubuntu on 3 "of my computers".

I also run Windows XP (both dual boot and XP only on some computers) and
I also run Vista in a virtual machine as it makes it convenient for my
Windows development projects.

So like it or not Bill, I *do* use Windows and Vista included.

Well, it's your own fault.

Your hardware is from 2003, you should have known.

LOL, never even looked at Sun Solaris. =)

Me trying to make a 600cc bike behave like it has 1,000cc. =)

Essentially, I've been riding that bike so aggressively that I managed to
stretch out the timing chain about a month ago to a point where it had to
be replaced. I suspect that at this point in time the valves in that
particular cylinder suffered or already previously suffered minor damage.

Then time and high rpms just did it's thing and eventually the valve bent
to the point where it snapped and the above is the result.

Careful! Take better care of your machine, or you could be the next
casualty, and not just a valve or the head.

Last time I blew a motor in my bike was on a road trip across the state
in the middle of nowhere. I suspect I got some bad gas with water in it
and it blew a nickel sized hole in the flat of one of my pistons. I
then road the bike on the shoulder 10 miles to the next exit and sat on
a gravel pile outside of a gas station in a tiny town for the next 8
hours waiting for my friend to get there with his truck to take me and
my bike back home.

It's what is left of the valve that used to be there. =)

Well I had the choice of either spending 2k to fix it, or selling it back
to the dealer at a 2k loss over what I was going to sell the bike for
anyway at the end of the year. So I took the sell option and the
remainder will go towards funding my next bike. Probably a R1. =)
