little question, bikes

I was in attendance at a VOSA seminar last year at Bentley Motors, they showed us a picture of a nail used through a ball joint at the time, can't remember the example but the nail had been fitted vertically and the VE said the person who fitted it hadn't even got the common sense to fit it such that the head of the nail was at the top to stop it falling out, so it was puched in upwards and left straight.

Sorry edited to say it was a wheel bearing not a ball joint.

i passed one the other day, and advised, but the owner didnt like the fact that i did,
i pointed out an advisory is just that , a bit of advise , he seemed to think it blemished his record of passing if he sold the bike..
