As the structural completion of the frame nears the finish it’s been necessary to take the frame down off of the rotisserie setup to turn it fully upside-down to finish off the welding, this gave the opportunity to weigh the frame once more.

The current weight of the frame came in at 240lb (109Kg), this is as I said structurally complete though there are a lot of brackets and other bits to add to the frame yet.

I set the frame on blocks to five an idea of its final running height what’s shown below is roughly 1/2″ lower than where it’ll actually run at a minimum, depending upon how it goes on the street I may need to raise it some more 4″ ground clearance doesn’t look so much all of a sudden!
