Re: Reinforce Gixxer Subframe

Wish I had a pic of mine handy. All you need is to run about a 1/8 or 1/4th inch thick by 1inch wide flat steel bar from the top bolt on the rear sets to the 1st bolt where the passenger peg attaches to the subframe. Mines been hit pretty hard and shes strong as ever.

Re: Reinforce Gixxer Subframe

My subframe tabs broke after a lot of abuse, if you're smooth they're not gonna break, I wasn't when I was learning so here's how I fixed them. it's way stronger than before and I never had a problem since then, and I scrape a lot.

1. both lower tabs are broken
2. cut the subframe to remove entire tab
3. find a piece of aluminum a bit bigger than subframe
4. grind it to be able to insert it into subframe

5. have it weld, grind it to make it fit, drill it ... et voila.
