Re: Falling Apart...

I ended up putting locktite on every bolt that attached to the front end of my 05 gsxr. I had the same problem with EVERYTHING loosening itself up forward of the tank.

thats your best bet......... they won't do anything for you, it happens to every gixxer no matter how "lightly" you put it down from a wheelie...

Re: Falling Apart...

Not every bolt, just those those that are in the front of the bike (takes the largest stresses). Basically I did all of them that are outside of the frame from the rider forward. This may have been a little overkill because not all of those were coming loose but I figured why not.

Re: Falling Apart...

I'd bet the dealers not gonna help you on that. You also my want to check your fork seals to see how they are holding up.
