“My grandson was riding his newly purchased Yamaha raptor 250 atv. He was traveling at about 40 MPH, when the motor fell out caused by all four motor mounts breaking away from the frame, this caused the chain to come off of the sprocket, bending the sprocket damaged the chain, seized up the bike as the chain was wrapped around the axle doing much damage to the rear axle, in turn it threw my grand son over the handle bars, damaging his helmet and cracking his ribs and bruising him badly. …”
