yes it was recalled in the UK.
Have you chaps checked out the info at the Hayabusa Registry?? and on Tripod??
If there is no problem, why have GIVI withdrawn all luggage for the GSX1300R, and why are we having to pay for new "stronger" subframes if we want them??.
The place that is snapping is the cast lug on the front. It is not the weld. If you look at the cast section, it goes from a flat area for mounting to main frame, to a round area for the butt joint. Where the flat / round transition occurs, that is where the reported breaks have been occuring. I have had many happy miles, mostly two up (okay I ma 11 stone and the pillion was about 9 stone max!!)
I have only heard of the breakages through MCN and the Internet. I have never seen any reported on the Vehicle inspectorate site, or the USA Recall site.
