Hi Paul, welcome to KSRC :D if something was PUT on the rider seat or passenger seat the weight is transfered through to the frame or sub frame, so it seems strange that they would say something like that :? mate keep persisting......... K Aust have a reputation of being hard nosed but you are the consumer & you do have rights so keep at them.

Ring their technical services people at Rydalmere. ZX10's had some cracking problems with the tail piece which a ferw of us experienced. Kawasaki tried saying it was mistreatment in some cases but when you push them they replaced them. Putting something heavy on the seat is crap, what ...... she put something heavier than a human on the bike????????
