Yeah, I'm thinking I could make a bolt on system to mount those as well. Think it would provide a much more comfortable riding position. Plus it would open up more room for scoot head. :wink:

Looks like I'm going to be fortunate enough to be able to borrow a spree frame. This is going to open up a lot of possibilities in the way of measurements for fabrication.

Much thanks to 66Six for making this possible! :coolcruise:

LOL, for sure plastic!

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.

Good deal spree-rider! Glad it got there ok. Thanks for the compliment. :smile:
The most important measurement now is exactly where the mount needs to be along the frame, and how far away from the frame the shock needs to be (if you viewed the scoot from the rear, how far to the left of the frame the shock needs to mount).

I have an idea for an even better design for where the shock mounts to my mount. I'll be posting some pics tonight or tomorrow.

Alright guys, this is my first official mount build. If this model continues to go as good as it's gone so far, it will be going to spree-rider by the end of this weekend.

I've come up with a new design for the part that will actually hold the shock eye. You guys will have to wait to see that one. All I got done tonight was just the base that mounts to the frame.

I was able to mount it in a good location that will not interfere with any of the OEM equipment....electronics, wiring, etc.

Check out the pics, and tell me what you think.

The black dots are where the bolts will go through the frame halves. The nuts will be welded onto the mount for easy installation. :smile:
