so what was the recall? i didnt follow the linkIf you drop your bike back down to the ground from a 12 o'clock wheelie, about a 1000 times the frame "may" break.

Got to hand it to Suzuki for being very proactive in this matter. :clapping:

+1... I am glad there doing it, cause really I think they would be in the right telling people "Sorry, not made for that"... As far as the crash, I am thinking that might be less of a frame issue, and more of a "I hit the truck at 70 mph" issue..... I would like to know what speed are causeing the crack in the front end collisions and if it would even be survivable??? Cause you ram anything fast enough your gonna bust sh!t up....:wow8:
