still tho, it looks good man, you just cant get notches cut the clean with a angle grinder and cut-off wheels

I was, but after looking at the mounting location on the Craftsman frame, it was like a swiss cheese so no place to bolt it down. So changed it to steel.
It's 13/32" steel so almost twice the thickness as 1/4". And it weights 8.2lb Very Happy

And you could make it almost as nice with an angle grinder, but this took me 10-15min to cut in the watercutter.

More than enough beef brother... Once you figure out what all you need, you can chuck it back in the cutter for some lightening holes

Hey Thunder,

Do you have the bolt pattern for the 700 written down?
If you could release that information it would be GREAT.

Not really but here's my "work" drawing. Note it needs to be flipped for Standard mount use, and the measures is in Millimeter Very Happy

I KNOW ya didn't just hand me THAT line affraid

Seriously though, I'd put the seat as far back and as low between the back tires as you can get... maybe even hang the seat off the back (have some rollers on the bottom for wheelie protection Cool

I DID, lol

And yeah good idea, but I kinda wanted to sit in front of the rear axle.

I like it, but I wish I had the rear fenders. Maybe I'll just skip it.

I will, nice rooster tail.

Moved the 700 mount plate as close as it can be mounted to the axle I think.

Shifter ideas yet??

redlinemotorsportts wrote:: Shifter ideas yet??

Yes and no. Depends on to much for now. Rearfender and so on.

Rear fender? No ones got time for that! Heh, i think most of your space out back was squished because of how far back your engine is. Im interested in steering too Very Happy

Yea but the plan is to shrink the fender in all directions.

And do you see the yellow marker mark, thats where my engine will end, so the steering shaft will go down into the little hole right aft of the engine.
Well that's the plan anyways.

Looks like an OG mini hood the way you cut it Thunder. Gonna be interesting to see where you sit though lol. Maybe a pull behind trailer? Razz
