Cracked frame !

Hi All . While loading my Ttr for a trip to wales , I noticed a break in the frame ! I think the tool tube could have contributed ? 
 Anyone else had this ? IMG_9864.jpeg

One of the favourite spots!
The other is just below the back of tank where the thin tubes meet the main frame.
Got a bit of corrosion there toobiggrin

On my bike I rerouted the wiring and welded in a gusset to strengthen this stress-node/weak spot.
