I am going to be gusseting my stock 250r frame within the next couple weeks, and I need some infor on where are the places that needs re-enforcing. It would also help if someone could post some pics that show where the gusseting needs to be.

Thanks, Andrew

Around the footpegs and shockmounts are important on just about all frames. I'm sure someone with more 250 experience cna fill you in on the rest of the weak spots.

Do a search, you should find a good bit.

At the rear by the grab bar, between the bottom mounting point of the "subframe" to the frame, and by the steering stem. The 86-87's need a reinforcement for the front shock mounts
