ya well i'm sponsored.........state farm.lol. when it cracks it cracks, just like anything else. everything breaks, even bullitproof hondas will break if it's on just the right spot. these bikes weren't made for this.
it just so happens gsxr's just do it a lil more often.

 

post up some pics of yours when its all done

 

Just wait! lol Its only a matter of time

 

how many new gixxers have you personally seen with ****ed up frames? Any bike with a cast subframe is going to have problems tho. I'm building a 600RR right now and I can see how people might have problems. All the new bikes have them and they are all weak. I'm not worried. Even when I was riding an 01 750 I never once broke a subframe and it was never reinforced or braced in any way. I just didnt buy into the whole bar trick fad. The only thing that really sucks about the gixxers is they still have the same shitty oil sump design.

 

i've seen plenty stays broken i was just gonna ditch it once it breaks, i just consider myself a little lucky.

ya i've heard about the pickup.....(stupid question)when do you know it's time to get the pickup? i'm right about(well i was before the snow) a soda can off the tail goin pretty slow not rockin idle yet.
i've just been puttin about a 1/2 qt extra in, hoping that it will help. how much are the pick ups.

 

get the pickup now, your engine will run super smooth all the time on the back wheel.

 

what we lookin at for price, dude? oh hey how did you re-enforcing work out on the subframe?

 

pm ryan he sells them

 

I think it's like 70-90 I can't remember what I paid for it. FYI, you have to pull the exhaust off to get it installed, so plan about 3 or 4 hours of it (not too hard, just time consuming).

I did a few scrapes on the bar but decided it's not really my thing, subframe held fine, I was gorilla scraping for some of them. I'm getting the MXD round scrape bar in the mail very shortly and looking forward to it, and a new tail section.

 

now dude is the j-beats bar the same as the mxd bar.....or same sort of design. 3-4 hours come on man to pull exhaust and drop an oil pan......

hey suicidl this ryan you speak of is that his screen name on here or is it somthing else?

 

sorry
screen name
MR. RYAN SMITH

on my f4i about 30 min to install

 

thanks, now i've heard about the pick ups but do you have a pic of one? i wanna see what they are exactly.cause i know what a stock picup on the pump looks like but not the aftermarket ones.

 

I'd attach pics but I don't have any yet of the bar, but it's pretty much the same as the Jbeats 905 bar from what I can see.

the 3-4 hours was cage, pickup and clutch change all together. getting the FI loop can be difficult alone sometimes.

the Stuntex looks like the stock one without the big *** collector/funnel looking thing on it.

 

just found these, not my bike though

 

thanks always helpin a brotha out.

 

Subframes are weak if they are not reinforced but its a simple fix the only thing you may not like is the clip-ons being low and thats it, everything else about the bike is great endo's burnouts acrobatics circles all take less effort.
keep em both and ride em both ride em both and make the decision for yourself because everyone is different. Good luck and enjoy

 

that guys one of the most loyal gsxr guys ever

 

Thats what im doin def. keepin the f4i love that bi*ch. I've ridden alot of bikes but never had the chance to really get used to any of them except the f4i and zx6. figured i'd try a different bike or 2 this season if it aint me sell it and try another
