well saturday night was our fair grounds race (ill have some videos of it soon) but on our second moto last lap i cased a pretty big double and my chain popped off, we got it back to the trailer and and the chain was tangled under the stock case saver and the bolt was ripped out witha small crack in it, it had all the stock gaurds and saver, you think my warrenty will cover that?

Been there done that. I was on my old YFZ and was skeeting through a narrow path when my sprocket hit a rock and threw the chain up into the case saver, cracked my case and oil leaked everywhere. Warrenty did not cover it because they said it was my fault for not maintaining the chain and keeping it tight. $1000+ for a new case w/ installation. Good luck but warrenty didnt cover mine.

nah it wouldnt cover his either we took it by there this morning but it wasnt as bad as we though it just ripped the top case saver bolt out and took out a chunk 1/4 where the bolt screws in no leaks or nething
