When I bought my 1999 Busa in 2014 the first thing I noticed was the rear subframe has been weld repaired at the top front rails that joint the cast mounting lugs both sides.
The welds look pretty good but I'm certainly monitoring it on a regular basis.... I rode for 3 years regularly with a passenger, never caused an issue thank goodness!
(In saying that, she caused a few issues lol)
