The jig I use for
retubing main frames and checking rear sections.

This photo shows
the big base frame back in the frame jig. The rear section will be stiffened
up a little. The front section had been retubed with .065 Chromemolly tubing
and needed a little tweeking anyhow, but that's another story......

The 741 rear frame
section seems to move around quite a bit. Even when kicking the motor thru
you can almost see the rear frame section shaking. The answer, I am hoping,
is to strut the rear frame section as a normal Sport Scout was. I think
this must have been a west coast idea here in the States.

This is the rear
brake cross shaft housing. Since no brakes are allowed for flat tracking
it needs a little clean up job.

Notching the tubing
with a tool from Harbor Freight. It is an OK tool for the money, if Duff
was using it every day he would have to improve a couple things. Cheap
though, $50.

The old brake cross
over housing cut off and the cleaner looking brace installed. If you need
a rear brake a cable set up for racing is the better set up anyhow.
