I have an 06 450R frame which currently does not have a gussettt kit and it has a crack in the frame, in the kick start side, if the kicker is in its resting position it is at the front of the kickstart on the tubing that runs right through there.,
I want to get a Rath gussett kit installed and the crack fixed, do you need a pic of it to give an estimate, or is this something you can do, can you tig weld the gussett kit in?

I was thinking of getting some round chromoly tubing to put around the frame to brace it up but didnt know the best way to handle it, is this something you can take care of from start to finish?

Yes i can handle it, but recommend the LSR or Textera Tech (sp?) kit as it has the needed gussets for the upper frame area...the Rath doesnt.

I was worried the LSR would make my frame too rigid, I feel the same about the Bare I am not familiar with the tiexera Tech kit

Are your install prices for the gussett kits in the post with the powdercoating prices?
