    I removed one of the factory gussets and added a much stronger one. For the down tube gusset I copied an article from an old 3 wheeling magazine article. It should be strong enough for the riding I'll be doing.

    I happen to have a complete 350X front and rear shock setup with the Gold valves ready to run. New springs and everything. I am going to polish the bottom tubes and install new boots and them put them up for sale. I paid $780 for them to be rebuilt and that does not include polishing or the boots. I would take $600 for the set of 3 (front and rear) or $500 for the front forks shipped.


    BTW nice Fab work and repairs! keep up the great work!!! I would on the front down tube, add a support from big the tube to the 2 smaller ones.

    Thanks for the offer. That sounds like a great deal but unfortunately I don't have the budget for that. Too many projects and not enough money. I'm going to have to settle for freshened up stock forks for now.

    The grab bar is done. It's nothing special but it'll do the job.

    Those welds are spot on.

    Is that a TIG. or a MIG??

    Good used tires on wheels are the best value. Lots of modern take offs out there. Get darn near whatever wheels and tires you want then get the hubs to match. Usually for about 1/3 the cost of new, and new tires don't slide well at all.

    I added another gusset to the frame at the bottom of the down tube. Also my bearings and seals came in and I have some questions. What fork oil should I be using? Since I'll be using stock forks for now is there anything I can do to make them work better?

    I run weight in original forks with OEM springs. aftermarket springs I use 5 weight. I just run maxima. It's at about every dealer you walk into for a few bucks.

    Did you double-wall that downtube? If not, your new gusset is going to transfer the load and make it crack there even faster than it already does.

    Edit: I see now that you did double wall the down tube. Good work.

    The frame and swingarm are painted. Now things can start going together.
