While riding home my gebe engine strap broke. The throttle cable all of the sudden became tight and the engine revved to full throttle. I had to keep the kill switch depressed while coasting to a stop. I got off the bike and noticed the engine strap was broken at the engie stap bolt hole. I guess there is enough flex when riding to cause fatigue. The throttle cable kept the engine from falling backwards and down on to the pavement.
I urge every one to check the engine strap bolt hole for cracking. I will now fabricate a stronger engine strap[wider/thicker metal flat stock]
I'm sooooo glad that I was only two miles from home
