Got the 2 axle plate pieces made.
The rear tail section has all its parts.
Now to mind fight the motor mounts. May as well start with the hardest? I only left myself 3/4 in for engine removal of clearance without taking the oil pan off. Helps the look of bike but, no tabs can be welded to the top off this rail? May have to brace it out to the side and make a plate that bolts to the side and drill 2 1/2 holes for bolts each side off the hole there?

This is what I was thinking?
Just make a couple spacers to space it out from the rail and 3/8ths bolts should work 2 of them?

May just do this?
Hell I might be the only one to ever look at the motor mounts on her?
Are they real noticable out the side like this?

Got those 2 mounts done and on to the next hardest one.
This has to be able to drop away from motor and come out the side.
Welded the cross bar in already now to make the connecting part to the back bone.

Got that mount done and it comes in and out with engine in the frame. Did not want to go down to the cross brace here for the oil coolers to have enough room.
On to the next one there is plenty of room here.
