Broke my frame!
« on: June 26, 2004, 06:15:10 PM »
I have a Yahama Wolverine and it's frame is broken in 5 different places.  Its broken behind the foot pegs on both sides, the rear motor mount is broken, the bar that motor mount is attached to is broken, and some little bar below where the swing arm attaches.  Needless to say my dad was really mad.  I am 15 and I do not ride slow.

 I just wanted to warn you that if you have a Wolverine ride hard and fast in extremely rough terrian with the occasional jump you should check your frame occasionaly for cracks or breaks in your frame.

failures in machinery happen some times and when you make one do what it wasn't designed for, the failure rate increases.  If I was your dad, I would be a bit angry too.  Glad you didn't get hurt, but you should be the one paying for the repairs, or stop riding until you are mature enough to be reponsible with those expensive toys.
