    You shouldn't be too late. If I were you I'd go in and get it checked.

    My frame was the worst on the cross sections, especially above the gas tank....where you can't see. Massive hole.

    Mind also had lots of flakes,and the whole under was scarry to look at because of rusts all over the frame.
    I am no mechanics at all,but i knew that my frame was in bad shape.
    When they inspected the under carefully,they did founded wholes at places,so the frame was perforated at certain area.
    So the dealer should inspect it ell and will take pictures for the main house that will decide what to do.
    These were my first procedures.
