Default frame cracked

Well I was looking at my bike today I see my frame is cracked. It is cracked by the front right motormount. And the left motormount is totally cracked. Has anyone else heard of a frame problem with the 02 YZ250F.

Thanks,
Clay

I have never heard of the frame cracking there, I have heard of it cracking up in the neck where the cradle comes in, but not at the motormounts.

I would think it could be welded without a problem though?

Got any pics Clay?

Clay, upload it to your picture gallery, should work.

You should also be able to attach it directly to your post as well. .jpeg shouldn't be a problem, I do it all the time.

Clay, if you want to have them here in the thread, just put a {img}{/img} around the address of the picture and it will show up in the thread, only use the [] signs instead of the {}.

when i had my 2002YZ250f the(i bought it used) the front left motormount area completely cracked and was re welded. i can tell because the weld to fix it was huge. and also another place that cracked but was never fixed was right by my left footpeg on the frame, look by all the welds, i had at least 2 or 3!! thats y i sold it and got a brand new crf250!

I have a friend with an 01 that had a crack by the motormount. It lasted a few good years of pounding, and was easily welded back.
