downtheshed Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Gents can this frame be repaired/welded safely.?? Quote
Gixer1460 Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Shouldn't be a problem - weird place for a crack......usually through or beside a weld or has someone been to enthusiastic with a grinder? Quote
downtheshed Posted March 30, 2016 Author Posted March 30, 2016 Yes dodgy tank fitment is the cause. Frame badly corroded all over. Quote
Guest Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Yes that wouldn't be a problem to repair I've done worse than that as long as the right filler rods are used Quote
downtheshed Posted March 30, 2016 Author Posted March 30, 2016 Need to find a local welder next ?? Quote
Fula28 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Be fine that no worries ' ! Must have alloy tig welders at AirPort somewhere? 1 Quote
Big-Daddy Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 No problem done it on my old GSXR frame and swingarm on my GSX Quote

canamant Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Jim - don't worry about it. Mine did 3 MGPs with the same marks from the same cause. Quote
