well thanks for the replies but you guys are wrong. I will get pics. the clutch nut is still tight.WE ALSO TIGHTENED IT WHEN WE REPLACED THE OILSLINGER. . But I have never seen one do this. not even on a jailing.

j did the slinger nut come loose? what about the style slinger you are running, i have seen the aluminum ones seperate from the steel portion
huh? looking at the first pic it looks like a full steel slinger. what are you running on the other side of the crank?

the nut is still tight and the oil slinger is still on the shaft so a loose oil slinger was not the case either. this is a stock one not a lightened one with the steel sleeve. I have seen those come apart and never lock up the motor, or break this shaft. This is a local rider's motor. He has a IRK on the other side.

Too much torque on the slinger nut? If they ship them out too loose, little doubt some stuff gets too tight...

the motor is bone stock. magiks I don't think that should have anything to do with it. I run the opposite a stock flywheel with lightened oilslinger and don't have any issues. Not to mention how many people out there run this combo or my combo and never have I seen this happen.
The oilslinger was tight firepower as I really can see even a loose one causing the shaft to snap. but I guess anything is possible after seeing this.
