Thanks guys I really appreciate it, and yes i thought the welder did a great job. I have to take some credit with the fab work LOL
ThrottleJunky:
Good looking job!
I noticed alot of 500AF's and 500SF's cut the frame section out without it bolted in a jig. Any of you guys compare the wheelbase and rake after the welding is complete? just curious...
sandblaster:
Party pooper :-P
ThrottleJunky:
sorry!
jholt:
Due to the factory (I call it the Triangle) that is not messed with up next to the steering head the rake and wheel base are not affected. You would have to be really rough with the frame and I mean really rough to affect it any. The down tube is pretty thick and I am not sure that you can really affect it due to the factory creating the triangle up next to the steering head...
