Looks like the rod bearing on the big end is the epicenter. I had that happen one time on a Yamaha YZ 80 running it wot for 4-5 miles. But it didn't blue or bend anything. It just came apart and sent bearing shrapnel everywhere. Cylinder needed over bored, new crank pin, bearing, piston ect.

This is just a case of improper heat testing of the parts I believe. Bearing pins got out of shape, and it was all downhill from there. I still have the OEM crank. Gonna have it rebuilt with OEM parts and get another slug. See if it lasts this time.

What was the temperature difference from town to Clingmans Dome Randy? Went up there years ago on the Harley. 90° in Gatlinburg, way colder at the lookout.

It was about 90 in Morganton. On top of Mt. Mitchell it was 67.
