This is gonna hurt
I hope its not's a congenital problem, in every GIXXER. Though if it is, I wouldn't be too surprised. Year after year the manufacturers create lighter and faster bikes, leaving less margin of error everytime a bike comes down the assembly-line. From that it's easy to extrapolate, at some point an inherent flaw is going to eventually occur. If catastrophic frame failures begin happening on a regular basis and as a result riders are injured or killed, there's going to be Hell to pay - or at least, some hefty legal fees. We'll just have to wait-and-see if the class-action vultures jump on this one.
