u dont have to reinforce it but if u dont, u will most likely wreck it. i have seen people use 1/4" x 1 1/2 flat steel mounted to the drivers rearsets and up to the the passenger rearsets. you shouldnt have to weld anything just drill some holes in the steel and bolt it on.

Re: How do i re inforce a subframe for my 12 bar

those pics are of an 04-05

03's were strtonger than those, but still not the strongest subframes out.

people used to do a lot of different things to reinforce 01-03 GSXR subs but almost every solution was some form of metal stripping bolted to the sub and the rearsets.

We built a brace that worked GREAT, sorry no pics though. I was a piece of flat steel about 6" by 4" that we drilled a hole in and bolted to the shock tower. We then welded 4 tabs onto it, one for each leg of the subframe and bolted the tabs to the subframe. It sort of boxed the subframe in and made it REALLY strong, even if it did break the brace would still hold your weight so you could keep riding til you have time to fix it. hope that helps
