So I was out on a ride yesterday and during a pit stop was looking over my bike and noticed there's a hairline crack on a weld in my frame just above the motor on the right side. I've only put about a thousand miles on the bike (about 17k on odo) and hadn't seen it before. I've seen other threads that have mentioned it happening and in some cases have been able to get Yamaha to replace the frame. Anyone out there that has had this happen able to give me some helpful info on who to call or where I should go to get started on finding out if they'll take care of me or if I'm going to be SOL. I know that I could get the weld ground off and have a new bead laid down but with the location of the crack, the motor will have to be removed so I'm sure that's going to get expensive. Anyone with experience here able to help me out?
