If my bike were human I'd be serving a long term for repeated assault and battery.
Well I took my seat off to do a little work and I found that the subframe crossmember was pretty badly cracked. The pics just don't do it justice. It was just hanging by a thread on one side and cracked half way through on the other.
I think this is about the fifth time a welder has been brought in to fix something on this frame.
I'm holding the new piece of metal that I'll be welding to the bottom of the cross member.
The piece that I'm adding laying in front.
Done. Hey not my best work, but I'm sure that it's stronger than it was before. A little wet newspaper to protect things.
A little paint
