hi gmanski
hi there mate, good on you for getting an xr650 it,s the best bike i have owned, and i have owned a few, mainly old pig,s , yes you are right about the sub frame it is not the strongest, and i certaintly would not overload it , my bike was fine we did 3500 kms in 3 weeks on some very rough tracks iknow my set up is not pretty but it was cheap and functional, only cost about 50 euro,s for the whole set up, the sump guard i built because i could not find one that covered the side casing,s, althought africa queens do a nice one but i could not afford the 500 euro price, good luck in oz if you can get out to the simpson and the cape york tracks, great places for off road bikes , if you need any more pictures or help just email me , all the bst fredddo
