I know a welder, just not a good one. I perform all my tricks myself Eric. :laugh::laugh:

Drilled some holes in the frame and puddle welded some stubs. Just gotta cut 4 tubes then put 'er back together.

Going to be working on the engine mounting plate this week also.

Starting to think about seats. I figured if I make them 12" long it should be perfect.

Also need to replicate a second set of foot pegs and brackets for the driver. Passenger will use the originals.

Bought some tubing today. Got her all welded up! Still working on the new engine plate. Just have to get out the grinder now.

Thanks Karen. Doing work while the weather cooperates. All the work I've done to it is the dumb unnoticeable stuff so far. Lol

Thank Jerry. I'm still hoping I can pull it off. Glad the forum is running good again, was having withdrawals.

I was able to reverse engineering the engine mounting plate at work today and make anplasma program to burn it out. Here's a pic of the plates I made on the table in my office. Everyone loves my office table for some reason.

Wow, they turned out great!

Its the bookends...
No worries on the ride-ability, you can always add a sidecar.
Nice work here.

It's gonna be a slow moving bike. Only a 3 1/2 hp . Hope it does what I want it to do. May be a bit wild on the turns.

Thanks for the comment!

One last update then going in for the night.
Bent the ends on the engine plate. Set it on the frame. Still got a lot of gentle grinding to do on the welds. This is gonna take forever.
