After reworking the axle position,sprocket location I added re-enforcement sleeves thru the swingarm to hold it in place as solid as I can make it.Made the upper-rear engine/tranny removable mount.Motor has 3 attachment points & tranny has 3 points on it's plate & 3 to the swingarm plate-I'm hoping that's enough!Got the removable shock mount tube in to know where to run the mufflers.I started working on the exhaust piping. The pipe that came with it were rotten on the bottom so I butchered up some other header pipes to make it work.Made everything clear for easy working on the motor.By the way- this motor is HEAVY (174lbs.)I had to use my winch with an overhead pulley to set it.I lucked up as it passed thru my rollcage with 1/2" of clearance. Thinking I'll wrap the pipes later to cover up the stitched pipe work. Got this set of mufflers for $20. w/ a box of other misc. bike parts(bike unknown)
