I dont think it was a conrod and piston rolling down the track.
Theres an oil filter on the front of the crank case that probably got knocked loose when the rod punched a hole in the case.

I can't believe how painfully slow the guy was with the fire extinguisher.

Really? Have you guys never had to "check in" on facebook? You try searching for "putting out a motorcycle on fire". Haters.

Holly F@k... according to my mechanical skills they'll have to bleed the tires and then check their valve clearances before next ride

Actually those rods look suspiciously skimpy to me and that was the bit that broke.
