Remove the engine mount crash bungs - they do bugger all except cause the bike to flip in a slide and, in my case also break the engine mounting lug :smt013.

Am fine - lost the front in the wet on a reasonably quick downhill right hander so RH side took the brunt. Bit of a sore shoulder but other than that fine - real pisser coz the bike was going great - so was I - right up to the bit where I fell off :smt009

There is a rumour that Geffros mates (family?) caught the moment for posterity however I am hoping that isnt the case
