Can't wait to make the shock eye mount section tomorrow.
Don't worry six, marking the location for the bolts is as invasive as I'm going to get on your frame.

The spree is actually much smaller than I thought. I'll prob be posting some final design pics for the shock mount tonight. I haven't gotten the side stand in the mail yet. Also going to work on the foot peg idea.

Hold on there ! might be a small problem ... I have been taking the Taxi out and really started looking at where the pegs might gorichdavison34 wrote:Ok, so the easy part is done.

and I think I know why they don't put pegs on them .
When cornering it's a lot more tilt then I thought so I am re-thinking some solutions .
Good Luck on your grab bar .

Six, I think your settings may be off on your welding machine. 
Let me know how that design works out. Maybe spring loading the rearward horizontal motion of the foot pegs would be a good idea. That way if they hit the ground they will bend back, and not put you on your butt.
Did you check out page three of this thread?

My first post here,
wow I just got a line on a cheap spree, and was thinking about buying it if the engine could be upgraded/swapped.
Looks like I hit google at just the right time

Re: Bolt On Spree-Dio swap Shock Mount SLOPE DISTANCE TESTER
Alright, I finally finished the shock mount.
I studied the pics of others that have done shock mounts in the past to get the position correct.
I changed my original design a little, let me know what you guys think.

Re: Bolt On Spree-Dio swap Shock Mount SLOPE DISTANCE TESTER
You should weld a nut on the back side where the bolt goes through the mount.

Re: Bolt On Spree-Dio swap Shock Mount SLOPE DISTANCE TESTER
Good idea traffic.
I think I'm going to weld the nuts on where the bolts go through the frame halves too.
Yeah man, couldn't have done it without SIX. If I didn't have this frame, it would have been very difficult to get it right.
