Bad Day Today....

Was out on a wee run today, a couple of days ago, the stator/alternator was giving trouble, so deciding on doing myself or getting someone to fix, on the way home over took a couple of cages thought I felt a rear wheel wobble put it down to the bad road a few miles on felt it again, and shit must be a flat, went the back round over the bog road home as wasn't far to the garage, when in the garage my heart dropped wasn't a flat a rear wheel bearing had collapsed and the rear wheel was loose, only 20 mins before was doing 85+ miles an hour, now the spindle is stuck solid in the rear wheel..... BASTARD ,WEE bit mad, oh well we will fix it...

Trying to get bastard spindle out......!!!!
