Hah, yep. Some for sure. Got my frame back from a buddy who is a certified welder today. So I decided to get it somewhat together. Still lacking a front axle, it is supposed to be here tomorrow. I did get that rim + hub today John, Gonna strip that tomorrow, and attempt to do a bearing change. Worked a good 2 1/2 hours or so on it today.
Might as well lay some more pictures on....
Heres the frame when I got it, As you can see it looks like someone let their 3 year old son weld it. splatters all over, no penatration, and they didnt even do the opposite side of the tube.
Here it is after my buddy got done with it, and I touched it up with some paint., You cant even tell that it has been welded now, besides the paint I used is a tad bit brighter then the stock paint.
And heres some assorted pictures..

Check the zip on that package Jared.... it was sent from Wayland NY.Originally Posted by Lots_Of_Nothing
Now I sent that regular mail, and sent a package to Mike from long island Priority mail the same day and he said he hadn't got it yet. Hmmmmm...
So Jared... looks like a great job! Do you hire out? I got a 350X I need to change a frame out on... going to run the VIN first though and make sure it's OK. I keep debating though... turned over that crate motor the other day to turn the bearings... wow! I'd be just a couple parts short of building a third 350X, (rear carrier, front forks, misc nuts and bolts, air filter) but think I'll keep the crate motor for the future. I might swap out the bad frame and bolt the other pieces (minus motor) together on the old frame to make storage easier! haha
Where'd you get your front axle from? Any of the leads I sent you?

I got the front axle from a guy on ebay, BrassMonkey or something like that.Check the zip on that package Jared.... it was sent from Wayland NY. Now I sent that regular mail, and sent a package to Mike from long island Priority mail the same day and he said he hadn't got it yet. Hmmmmm...
I went through ALOT of grease and anti-seize putting this sucker together, I want to make sure its a smooth tear down next winter when I re-do it all.
Do I hire out? LOL. Well, it seems I do it alot around here. As long as got all the parts laid out and ready to go, Its only a couple hour job. It only took me a couple hours to do that today. And some of that time was spent talking to my curious neighbor who wandered over into my yard to see what I was building. If you want me to come down and lend a hand throwing one together sometime, I'll gladly do it, Thats the best part of this hobby to me. working on them.

Oh, also, Bruce. While I got your attention, You wanna give me a hand on routing the clutch /throttle cable, and the wires? I want to make sure I have it all correct. Maybe just some directions or a picture?

Hope I don't find any welds like that on my $75 350X!! Here's a picture
It ain't about the money, or even being #1, you gotta know when it's all over you did the best you could of done! And knowing that it's in you and you never let it out, is worse then blowin' any engine or any wreck you'll ever have!

Neah, I dont have one. I have been meaning to buy one, But the net stores need a credit card (which I dont have). And the guy on ebay hasnt listed one in awhile. I'm sure I could figure it out if need be.
