Broken axle

[Wildgasgas]

Last week I landed a big tabletop on my 2012 yfz450r and the axle snapped in half as soon as the weels reached the ground:argh: I lost control of the quad and crashed into a wall. One week after my spine still hurts because of the crash.

Here is a video of the quad with the broken axle. It's strange the way it's broken.

Wow. A clean break. Hopefully your back is ok. Was that an oem or aftermarket? I'd check my carrier and bearings for damage after that.

It was original. I guess that the stock axle is not the best for atv motocross.
