    Rocker arm gave out.

    Had to change my rocker arm on cylinder #1 on the exhaust side. The needle bearing were about to come out and it was not working properly, so I switched it out. Man it runs sooo much better now. It runs like it did the day I picked it up from Allen's shop. I am ready to race!

    If a rocker goes out, you WILL know. Trust me. It will click VERY loudly. If this happens, immediately shut off your motor!
