Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Since the release of the suzuki hayabusa, there has been a small trickle of reported subframe failures. most of the time, the owner can safely stop the machine. there have been at least three reported incidents of injury due to the failure. have such a major component of a motorcycle fail as the subframe assembly. there is evidence from a european report that tested sub-frames (independent tests, not from suzuki ) show that there are definite quality/strength issues with the frame. i would appreciate some sort of report from suzuki or yourselves showing that my machine is safe to be operated (completely stock) as is.*ak
