mig welding up the holes ,I use a coat hanger as a filler rod on large holes and gaps,installed foot pegs not sure of the length ?,if someone could let me know the length that would be great also where does the kickstand spring go on the frame?
The pegs are 2-1/4”. Not much foot room. I put the spring in the slot for the engine bolts. Not sure if that’s “correct “ 1A6DF7C5-F8A1-4401-A208-4FC2CF955B84.jpeg
