Re: Cracked frame
hey man, here's some advice from an engineer: sell it to some fool while it's still in one piece. jb weld, or any other epoxy, won't do anything except give u a false sense of security. welding cracked, cast aluminums never really works. it will just crack and break again. I'd sell it and get a honda.

Re: Cracked frame
i'd have to disagree with the honda bandwagoners here.
honda is a good bike and all, i've had a few.
but a gsxr is king of all that is top notch.
and just because you are that 1 person out of a million that has a problem with your product doesnt make it a shitty product.
a small crack in the frame can happen to any bike.

Clearly you are uneducated on the fall apart of gixxers and gixxer motors blowing........hondas are tanks......if you want durability buy honda.....i ride em and i don't even like em.............

werd i guess your right, my 9 buddies that seperated their subframes from their frames and their 11 blown motors must have been a fluke, but on a good note every honda is still running on original motors and only one broken subframe, but i see where your coming from......and by the way, where do you ride in orlando?
