SHITE! Is there an inexpensive way to crack test magnesium parts, particularly the hubs etc? All these horror stories have me thinking now.
I can recall one Mr Motocross round I went to at Amaroo as a kid and seeing Anthony Gunter ( I think ) shatter a rear wheel coming onto the straight off the ski jump on an RM370. Now I know why! He stayed on the bike too, which in hindsight, was bloody good riding!
