LOL! that's one way to put it!

Shocks are canted into the cage, the rezzies will be mounted inside so I can access the compression adjustment. This will be going into the first race with no real "rough" riding testing, I'll have my shock pump with me so I can tune without getting out of the harness.

The upper mount was the hardest since it located into thin air essentially--bumping the trailing arms outboard 2 inches each side moved it off the frame tubing.

The lower half of the cage is tricky as well, the shaft to hub chain runs rise to about 6 inches above floor level at full bump, so i have to have that section "tunneled".

Oil tank location is really my biggest worry, that was inside next to the seat, never liked it there. but not a lot of options. I have a spare tank and lines after blowing up the last engine so it will find a home ...hopefully lol.
