    Angry Cracked My Frame

    Well i went to ocala and was showing the cannibal to some guys with 400s and we found a big crack. the bar beside the bottom of the engine cracked all the way in half . this is only my 3rd real ride, the other times i have just ridden it around the house. if i have to pay for this i am going to sell it and get a 400ex or a crf450.

    maybe there is a lesson to be learned

    It's almost fate that the frame cracked on u crackfish; this is because of all the 400ex bashing you have done on EXRIDERS.

    i called the dealer and since it is not under warranty i might have to pay for it. if so, i think i will go to two wheels.
