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
I see the problem right there , not enought air cooling to the crank. Problem sorted now

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