Ouch!!!!!!!!. It dosen't really suprise me though. Suzuki's are known for their light weight - but - that light weight is a compromise on cheap aluminum and steel. That dosent look like its from poor porting though - Polaris 400L motors do the same thing when they are modded out pretty well, its actually from the head twisting under torque. They sell a cylinder girdle just because of it.

I saw that happen to a friend's Zilla. All his work was done by Duncan...after some grinding and welding...good as new save for the appearance.
