Glad to hear it was nothing worse. Too bad the timing of the failure was bad.  But at least it wasn't a total loss, thanks to Joe.

Glad it isn't too bad Mike.
Not riding on with the noise was good thinking!

Good to hear all the sick bikes didn’t have any really nasty issues. Unlike their owners.
Felt great to be back on two wheels again. Still some issues with a foggy brain but getting out with this crew was great therapy. The time around the fire pit was priceless.

Turns out my wrist pin on my front cylinder somehow came out and gouged up my cylinder and got lost in my lower end somewear so it's going to turn into an engine rebuild. My Indy thought it was a lifter but after putting it back together it had the same noise
