Pissed and Broke.Bugger moments

Here are some pics of an old two stroke piston of mine that had a bit of a detrimental effect on the way the bike performed.

This is what happens with a combination of high altitude, high temp, high revs, high speed and lean jetting. The bike actually still ran!

Maybe I could fix it using the aluminium brazing rods that Shane has kindly donated.

That gives me a thread idea,on TT they have the wall of shame thread,where you post pictures of monumental failures like the one above and a brief description what happened.
