if your gonna do it make sure you have a pro weld and cut the mounts. make sure not to over do it. the only spots i'd gusset is the front shock mounts. anything else is just overkill and worthless wieght.

Im gonna have to dissagree with you on that statement..I race MX year around and i know the shock mounts,steering stem mounts,subframe mounts,and also right by the foot pegs is another weak spot...Al these spots on my frame have craked so i now need to get them guessested..

no one sells actual kits that i know of. on my bike the only places i have been able to break are the lower front shouck mounts.
