Are the insides of the sq. tube 90 degree corners? If so, I did that to a CR500 and the rails cracked pretty quickly from it being too thin on the corners. I went to radiused sq .tube and have had good luck.

I like your lower engine mounts...

Yes there are also 90° corners inside.
The OEM Kawasaki Tubes are 2,5mm thick and we have used 3mm thick tubes.
There will be enough material for a small radius ;-)

Hey Guys,
which radiators did you use for your build?
We will use the KX 500 radiators...
right side is fine! left side is very very close!
It would be nice if the left radiator will be about 1 cm shorter...
