Repair the subframe

  • I recently had to repair the subframe of my Sprint ST 1050 ABS (2006).
    The previous owner had already repaired once…
    I saw in a English Facebook Group of this bikes that this problem is "common".


    This is the picture of how the subframe had cracked in two zones, in one of them, it's possibile to see the welding of the repair of the previous owner…

    This is the tip for anyone who needs it.

  • I think that's just a problem with the topcase mounted!
    Your repair is excellent!:top:
