Noticed movement on the extaust unit this weekend ,plus the heat sheild was rattling in time to bike, then to my total amazement I discovered the sub-frame completely cracked on both sides , just after the seat unit.
Has anyone else experienced this....??????

Oh dear!!

All the way through?? Bugger!!

I've got one of the 'legacy' bikes () so haven't had this problem. I do think I remember hearing this happening to other 999 owners though.

Yours is a 999R isn't it? Fairly new? What did the dealer say and who is your dealer?
