So when the time comes to do mine, you're saying you have a friend who'll do the welding for me? SWEET!
JK but would be good to have someone do the work who knows how to weld a frame. Haven't ordered my hard tail yet. Did you get nailed for taxes when it hit the border?
When you get the frame done make sure you grind off all the extra tabs (decide where you want your points - you probably want to get rid of the big plate if you're using a coffin tank mounted high on the top tube) and get rid of the steering stem lock on the steering tube. It's ugly.
My 650 build thread has pics of my frame as I cleaned it off.
Hey Tim, On the bottom they matched the new frame rails in front of the piece that runs vertical (it has the rear motor mounts). The jig/bracing is used so that the rest of the old frame could be cut away. And it holds everything together so it can be welded. Works really slick because I think it just bolts to the motor mounts and should be able to be used again.
