06 crankshaft issues?

A couple of 06 owners have had crankshaft failures. Knocking sounds. Got worse but started around 4000 miles it seems.

Thanks lemac. I am "chicken little" here. I am all ears when I tested the ride again. So far so good. Couple of buck 80 passes today. Still so far so good.

Handn't heard of any crankshaft faliers in the newer engines, but I know my old RX (ZX10a) has gone through a few.

wow I did not know that the GPZ's had that issue.

Only a couple of cases so far, which is good actually. Non stunt riders or racers either.
