how/where to beef the frame up

[azbill]

I am thinking about this stretch frame as a new build...I like the straight bottom tube, it lends itself to a 4stroke mount easily

I would like tips on how to make it stronger
ie...where to reinforce it with gussetts ,,,I know others have had frames crack and stuff

Bill,
Studying that frame but not knowing your weight and the riding surfaces you usually travel, I've added a couple of gussets where I would add them if I were building that bike. The red ones for sure and the purple one unless you can incorporate some strengthening in your motor mount. I'd probably use 1/4" plate but 3/16" would suffice, I'm sure. That is an interesting looking chassis and should make a great looking cruiser. Keep us informed.

This is where I would gusset it.
:edit: Dammit! I'm too slow!

But my gussets are fancier!

Bill,

I think you and I are looking to the same thing here, or at least real similar.
