GSXR1000 frame snapped from getting ran off the road? pics inside!

got this pic from a buddy of mine on a 06 gsxr1000, he said a lady ran him off the road, if thats true i dont understand how the frame could have snapped like that. what do you guys think? i've seen him ride some wheelies and ****, but even so, i cant see how the damage adds up, everything looks good but the frame.

Threw them away, are you crazy Thats gas money right there, I can get about 70 cents a pound for that aluminum scrap at the scrappers....Its not copper or anything but still worth a drive to the scrap yard for some cash....

Here's the most recent one from an 07 750

Suck a clean break. Everything else was MINT. Not a scratch anywhere on the front end.

Well I'll be damned.

Well, the necks I gave back to the owners, but I threw away the rest of the ****.

I want to hear from some stunters stunting these bikes, how the hell do they deal with the cold welds on them? If you look at all the welds, they are all cold! No penetration at all, they split right down any seam anywhere on those bikes

I've seen a few people on here strip them as soon as they get them and reweld the frames.

It's a shame they're such nice looking bikes. I'd think about owning one if I wasn't scared that it'd break in half
