Damn that sucks entropy! Billett crank damaged. I'm trying to learn all I can from you guys so I can maybe avoid some of the problems.Hope you get it back together soon.

Kevin, of course!!!!!
But NOT the famous KCadby
My Kevin is a very serious, long time roadracer, modest bike shop in Katy Texas. I'm sure you've heard of Katy with its famous yearly Rice festival!!! 
He had no experience on zx12's till i came along, but has built scads of motors incl several big motor Busas, and has a very good reputation; real careful. His cam settings were quite different than Lee's (on Lee's cams) and made better hp. Go figure...
I trust him, and unfortunately he is flumoxed over the parted shaft.
