Well I went to the John Penton race just for fun and all of this happened. I am still riding with those bars beacuse only the cross bar bent. The stem was replaced within a week.

It all happened when I went to hit one of the nastiest up hills after getting stuck in a mud hole right before it and on the way up the hill, I popped the clutched and it cart-wheeled about 5 times before it reached the bottom.

well first thing, this happened back in May. I bent the crap out of the bar crossbar and bent the stem and almost lost the front plastic.

It the process I also bent the frame because before I sent the frame to pappy, it was bent severely near the top of the frame.

And second, the 300ex's subframe is attached to the frame.
