I wouldnt reinforce ****. Until it breaks first. I will be reinforcing my subframe mount tabs when they break... and they will eventually. Always check the welds on the top of the frame under the gas tank. All of the welds around and especially under the steering head. Also long framesliders that dont bend or break will transfer the impact to the engine mounts and bust the welds or bend them. I take all the bodywork off my bike every month or so (if I can go that long without having to fix or adjust something) and always thoroughly inspect my frame. Gixxer frames are the big suck.

I second that... i have stock gearing as well... get up to about 30 mph...let off the throttle ...as soon as your front in go forward throttle again. You must do it quick... Pratice giving it more throttle as you start getting it up consistently. Trust me your bike will come up easy...just be patient and pratice, pratice, pratice, OK you get the picture. Don't forget to cover your rear brake in case you think you are about to loop.... Stay Safe!!!
