Hi guys,
I'm sorry, this isn't particularly retro and certainly not cool but something terrible has happened and I didn't know who else to turn to.
So my friend has had is Kawasaki ninja 9r for a while now and noticed the engine was down on power and hard to start and put it down to the valve clearances.
Usually this wouldn't be a problem, we would whip it apart in an afternoon and do them ourselves, but currently we are both quite busy with new jobs etc.
So he took it to a garage, bike was fine other than the suspected valve gaps.
They take it in and as far as my friend knows its all going fine. Until this afternoon.
He gets a call stating that they had finished the work, took it out for a test ride, during which, a suspected timing chain incident happened and now its thought the timing has skipped a tooth.
Now. Could anyone here just clarify who is going to have to pay for the damage resulting from the timing chain malfunction?
Thankyou in advance.
If i was on a computer i would include many a cool image as penance.
