Cracked frame ZX10R -04

Hello all kawi guys out there!

Noticed something bad today while i changed oil in my ZX10R, My frame is cracked around the R/H middle engine mount (the weld)

Anyone who seen something similar???

The bike is never crashed, and im not a big fan of wheelies so this should not happen to my bike... But i do use it every day during the summer and a lot of trackriding but they are built for it right?

1st a generator blew up!
2nd one more generator, and the complete engine
3rd New 05 engine, but now cracked frame... But i still love to ride this "crazy" bike

brgds /Dennis

Sorry for my Swenglish but i think ou will understand most of it

deffinately contact your local dealer and if its still under warranty they should step up and replace it AND even if its not they should still replace it.

You think its still under warranty - the bike is 3 years old. I'm on hold with the dealer now....

Just got off the phone with my dealer - he said to send him some pics and he is going to call his Kawasaki rep in the morning and ask about warranty work. He doesn't think it will be a problem cause Kawasaki always stands behind its stuff.
