Frame issues/subframe issues
« on: February 01, 2009, 05:42:22 AM »
All I can find are 5 year old threads.

Does anyone have pics with repairs/mods to strengthen sub frames? Where are the weak points?

A friend cracked his subframe yesterday. The bar that goes from the left to right. Right above the air filter.
2000 KX500
2005 XR650L

Neither are stock, and both are great desert bikes.

Check out Ramski's gallery.  He's got good pics of the usual frame fixes/gussets. His gallery is on page 1 in the photo gallery. I havent seen much on the sub-frame though.
