These do not carry any weight. Was added for support of the foot pegs....

Thanks. I don't know much about this sort of thing. I'm kinda wondering what's going to happen when she hits a bad pothole, especially after some miles have been put on the bike. This isn't the same thing, but I saw an old topic in the KZR archives in which someone's sidecar bracket broke when they were stopped for fuel --- I shudder to think what would've happened at speed. :ohmy:

I'm guessing there's still a good deal of fabrication and welding to be done. Otherwise that engine's going to go for a ride without the rest of the bike since it isn't secured in the frame. Ed
