Anyone have any trailside emergency fix-it stories to share??
I remember-- way back when i was in high school ,riding my KX105, the chain split at the master-link. I don't know why, or how but it did. Anyway after searching around the immediate area, I was able to find the master-link and the plate, but I could not find the u-clip.. I feared I would be pushing the bike all the way home when suddenly I had an Idea!! Ya see at that time I had braces {teeth} and wore those little adjustment rubber bands. I got to thinking-took two of the spare bands, and stretched them accross the retainers of the master-link...it was unbelievable.. they actually held the chain together and I made it all the way home !
