What do you need a cross member for, -----? Just remove the x-member and you will have plenty of room. You will save a bunch of weight too. They remove the cross members on motorcycles at the factory! So they can't that big of deal. BTW your links all failed, you sould have just posted the pics. Don't forget to remove that x-member.

a x-member on a sport bike is just extra weight. luxury cars need them though. trucks too

wow being without the internet sucks. I got slammed at the time was on the dsm board for my dsm adn posting about crossmemebers so that was in my head. What i was talking about was the core support or the radiator support or radiator for that matter. Will they have fitment issues?

When you remove that ****** do you use HMT built one or aftermarket? That ****** = crossmember...
