Has anyone had a problem with their frames rusting through from the inside? Mainly the left tube under the motor. I found a spot that rusted through from the inside and found that the frame was rusted very thin. Almost scary thin. I repaired it and it will last probably a few years but that tube will need to be cut off and replaced.
This is not a rant and rage post. Just an FYI. If your bike sits outside alot, You may want to check your frame. Mabee with a sharp tip awl or some kind of poker. The repair started as a rusted through crack. When I opened it up to get to solid metal, It went to a dime size hole. While filling the hole with a plug and a welder, The repair went to aprox 6 inches long and the width of the tube.
