2006 GSXR 1000
2007 GSXR 600 (track - sold)
PM me if you have a good track bike for sale
I was told by the shop I took mine to that Suzuki was not overly concerned if it was dropped or not. It is a saftey recall so the frame is as if it was under warranty. Do not know if that is true of not but it is not a concern for me all I care about is it is getting fixed.
I was looking at new bikes when I first heard of this recall but I have not found a bike that catches my attention. Even the new Gixxers do not do it for me as I am not fond of the dual pipes and the electronic gagetry.
I like the Honda CBR 600 but not the 1000, I find the front of it too round for my tastes.
I will stick to my 06 until I get bored or some thing comes out that I find sexy..

how is everyone getting their bikes to the shops? Im in Ajax, which is the closest? Is there a backlog or much of a wait? Thnx
I took mine in a horse trailer but the shop did offer a trailer or to pick it up. As for time Mine has been there since the 4th of Feb. Also mine is a replacement which is more work.

i guess i'm gonna call all the cloest locations. are they they picking up for free? thnx
Now that doesnt look half as bad as I was expecting, but still kinda sketchy with the glue oozing out like that...I still would not be impressed with anything short of a new (redesigned/manufactured) frame.....Not just a glued in fix...Better then nothing though, but why only the 05/06 1000? GSXR frames have been stress cracking at the neck since 2000...
The test is a LDP (Liquid Dye Penetrant)
Am I going to trust some kid with no experience to do a LDP?
I'll have to think on this one.
"If you can't find em, grind em"
Mine is finished and all I have to do is pick her up.. It will be interesing to see the fix for the first time. Lets see how long it takes me to crack this one...
