been working on my xr650l. just finished it this weekend. its fast and loud unfortunately I think I am going to sell it, I wanna get something smaller. its too tall and to make it work for me I have to put too much droop in the rear suspension. plus on the trails I cant throw it around if I cant touch the ground... so if anyone knows someone looking for a nice xr650 (bored to 680) plus a bunch of new goodies on it, holla.

You put a ton of effort in that thing, hope you get a lot out of it. Just finished my truck tonight, wrecked it, broke an axle shaft but it's all better now. Tryna get my bedcage in. Anyone got hookups on a place that can cut steel plates to plate my frame?

What's the best way to make these mounts double shear?

I don't know if its the best, but it's probably the easiest.
