On my last ride i just got back onto the trail heading for the truck when i noticed my sled would viberate alot at 3/4 or more throttle. I stopped and opened the pannels to check my belt (it lasted all year) so i thought one of my motor mount bolts broke again, but they where fine. I started riding again and sure enough started shaking with speed, so i stoped to check my track. there were no rips or ice build up in the tunnel so i rode back to the truck slow. After rebuilding my primary i started my sled up on my stand and finally noticed the bent shaft. I put the shaft in the lathe at work to find the high spot and used a 1' snipe to see if it would bend and sure enough with very little pressure it broke right at the bearing. im just glad it didnt decide to let go out in the hills
