The original 'busa did have that rear sub-frame issue - but later models dont suffer from the problems (I think from 2001 onwards were ok). Mine was a 2001 and it was fine.
I've never heard of any other issues with the frames of busa's.
The Gixxer 05 problems would make me a lot more wary about the next model - especially if Suzuki brings the dry weight down to 195kg or less (which is around a 20kg reduction on the current model) because you have to believe that a good portion of those reductions will be lighter alloys and thinner walls on anything solid - including the frame.
