This question has come up many times on the list, and to my knowledge, there's never been a structural failure (spars, fuselage....anything made of wood) on a KR. There was a KR look-alike that lost its wings during a high speed flyby at a KR Gathering, but it was composite, built in a short time frame, and apparently not as strong as a "plans-built" KR. Another "may" have had an elevator horn break (or the crash may have caused it), but that's the only one that I know of, and I wouldn't call that structural, and it was isolated, if it even happened.
