I reckon the shear power of the ST caused it to crumple under pressure !

Probably pulled away too fast and it got sucked under the wheel

the bottom of the second pipe was ever so slightly below the bumper and being tied to the rad pipe has a bit of give so I imagine if it was really forced it could have happened that way
Not really sure how else it could have happened
