| Post subject: | x1 frame worrys |
my and my x1 had a crash sunday the frame looked ok to start with but on further investigation the point where the forks stop against the frame seems to be dented a little all the welds are still strong and the paint is unmarked around them but the frame where the forks stop againts is bent in a little and the paint seems to be cracked slightly . i know you guys cant see the damage but do you think the bike will be ok as if i go threw the insurance route they will right her off and i aint doing that to my baby |

My 97 M2's got dents on both sides from a masive tank slapper when it was 6 weeks old. My fault.  Never seemed to affect it.
