Sorry about the bad news mate.

If I were in your situation I would take Yonyl's advice, stroke it and turn this event into a power increase oportunity.

Bugga!! Sorry to hear that.

Still it will be like new once you've finished and a really interesting exercise. Hope you have something else to drive in the meantime.
