Hi. I'm trying to figure out what happened in this picture. Looks like his axle snapped and ripped open the fork draining the fork oil.

What are your thoughts?

sorry if this is a repost.

p.s. yea he's a massive squid.

this is the moment he realized he should have worn a helmet

and when something broke on the front end, kind of looks like there was no cotter pin, came loose, stoppie ripped the wheel from the fork and hence all that liquid spewing out.

Pipe cutter???  Score the tube just enough to completely compromise the integrity of the front end and watch the fun???  Maybe an EMT did it because they were bored??

that seems to be the great debate doesn't it? what makes a squid?  :laugh: now, if i bought a zx-14 for my first bike yet wore all protective gear, i'd still be a squid correct? and yet if i bought a gs500f and wore no gear i'd still be a squid? correct?  :laugh: :laugh:

For sure the no gear would be squidly, if you bought a zx-14 as your first bike you'd just be an idiot!  :laugh:
