gusseting a frame

[badtothebone250]

Im building one of these beasts for mx and want to know if I really should gusset the frame while the bike is apart. If so, where do I get a good gusset kit for the stock frame and do I just need to have a professional welder do the job or should I send the frame to an aftermarket company? Thanks!

If I were you I would...You could send it to Pappy (BK performance) he can do the gussets and powder coat it also.
