Thanks for the compliments.
The Happy Trails look as if they only have two mounting points per side:
I also don't like the fact that the rear of each frame is unsupported i.e. lacks a cross-brace. Also made from 0.5" tube (12mm) where most other frames are 15mm minimum.
My welding leaves a lot to be desired IMO, I don't practice enough to get good at it. If in doubt, I pile the weld on..... All welding was done with a cheap Clarke 100amp MiG welder that I bought nearly new about 12 years ago. Now thinking of investing in a tube bender & a cheap TiG welder that will allow me to do steel, stainless & ally welding. I bent the tubes for the DRZ frames in a vice around mt MiG welders gas bottle.
