Sorry to hear about your lose. Hopefully you can rebuild and get things back even better! No deaths = just a pain for a while.

Nah, I was thinking about you when I got the call Bucky. I was hoping it would have been a false alarm and woulda been you burning slowly :-)

Hey y'all 


For your safety, safety of your shop and toys, family, pets, anything else residing in your shop/garage/car port/home:

Unplug any kind of battery charger when you leave home.

One of our shops burnt today and destroyed an estimated (from the insurance person) 48,000 worth of parts, tools, our kart cylindered 02 CR85, 05 450R engine, NOS parts (including Terry Cable fork kits, heads/cylinders, clutch kits, cranks, forks, shocks, a-arms, axles, pipes, silencers, cases, swingarms, etc).

My uncle left for work this morning and forgot a Ryobi battery on the charger. The charger shorted out and the battery exploded. At least that's what we think happened going by the side of the building being blown out a good 7" right where the outlet was.

We are trying to save what we can but it's tough. This is one of those things that you would never expect could happen to you and it's all of ours worst fears.


The shop was my home away from home, and a better home than my actual home, for the past 6 years. My uncle and I have been spending every weekend together that we possibly could building bikes and engines there for the past 6 years.


Y'all, don't ever think that this CANT happen. It can.
