>2. Has anybody encountered similar fracture.
I have had nothing but (small?) troubles with the crash bars. When I had
them hanging on garage wall I crashed with a car. Lots of damage in
front parts of my RD04 (but only one broken bone).
After that I mounted the bars on. Results:
1. Both bottom shield attachment bolt threads are gone.
2. Upper attachment bolt (also radiator bolt) on the left side is broken.
3. Because of broken radiator bolt the left side bar was in contact with
radiator cover and rubbed a hole in it.
I warmly recommend periodical checking of all the crash bar
attachments. Might save you some trouble on the road.
