After riding today my friend found a hole in the frame on his '01 CR 250. Has anyone experienced or heard of this problem? Any info is appreciated? Thanks BTW I do have pics but I dont know how to post them on this forum.

Remote link them from photo bucket or something, bike pics or and picture hosting place would do, or even better, support DRN and subscribe, then you can add attachments :) ...

Where on the frame is it? Do plastics or cables run across it? Ive seen both wear away metal and I would imagine after a while it could go right through.

I was expecting to see the spot where the plastic rubs the frame. But that looks more like a manufacturing defect.

I don't know if I'd trust an epoxy fix.

There was another guy who posted pictures a couple years ago. His frame broke in two pieces. The upper spars were broke about where the hole in the picture is and the downtube was broke just above where the two lower rails connect with the Y piece.
