i've got a buddy who is a pro-metal fabricator. is there anything special i need to do to prep the frame for this. and where should i gusset?? and also is there anything i should beware of before i go into this whole thing??

I found some pics of a few places to gusset on the 400's frame.

Foot pegs (http://www.annihilationracing.com/reports/BikeMods/Image19.jpg)
Front shocks mounts (http://www.annihilationracing.com/reports/BikeMods/Image18.jpg)

There's also the front bumper mounts that tend to crack after a lot of abuse from what I heard. Hope it helps. :)
