It's not just the Sport V.....

I just put the third lower drive assembly on my HD Sport in less than a year (115 hours) from cracks.

Thank the Lord for Gator Trax customer service!!!


BTW...who is taking the collection for wagers as to how long that post will stay up with that pic?

I wonder if GF puts out another "press release" for damage control like he did with the transom bracket....this time, it will be the strap manufacturer's fault. They shrunk after getting wet and created too much tension, cracking the LU.

I just gave him an out. :lol:

So, if you read the majority of all threads related to the Sport V misfortunes and the misfortunes the customers have had mechanically, is this an accurate reflection?

Don't worry gator tail will open more eyes and shut doors on competitors. Oh wait they are already doing that! Needless to say these new MB motors are a joke, once again they lose!

I hope this guys family is ok. I would strongly suggest to all mud motor operators to wear a lanyard to prevent stuff like this. Accidents happen regardless of the maker etc.

My only real issue w this thread is the talk of life in limb when this situation could and should have been prevented.

If the handle broke or a handle breaks.. Or a clutch screws up or whatever... A lanyard there is to kill it...

Saying any properly used motor is a threat to someone's life is a stretch and to me is taking it too far.

Maybe I misread some of what was posted..
