Zuki tank armor

So u kno wut I hate?
No handbrake staggered circles. Cant do em. Knew I couldnt do em, but cracked my frame tryin anyway. Fuggin 905 pos cage didnt help much either. If I can pry that crap off my bike I think Ill try an Impactek. Any ideas? 02 sixxer (other than burn the bike and get a kawi or f4i)
I got some random alum and billet plate to reinforce the frame and plate up the subframe. Im thinking about fabbing a forward mount for a 1 off cage that doesnt bolt to the motor mounts by adding a cross bar a few inches in front of the forward motor mount w a bracket that I can mount the cage to. After plating it all up first of course. If that makes any sense. Im just getting tired of this **** *** zuki frame falling apart all the time. I like everything else about it and I love zukis but goddam gotta spend more time fixing the fukr than I get actually riding it. Its like a hot girlfriend that has chronic migraines. I dont care if ur head hurts thats not the parts Im interested in!
OK rant over. Any helpful input will b appreciated.

Re: Zuki tank armor

BTW bf the nit pickin vulture posting starts, I know I dont need a hb for staggered circles. Thats why I tried em staggered. Jus think it would b easier w a hb cuz I throw my right leg or knee out trying to catch my balance and its tricky catching the brake like that. Yet to break the habit. Yet to pull of a full staggered circle either. Baby steps

Re: Zuki tank armor

Thanks for the input loogie. My frames not too bad. Gotta nasty dent on one side and that 1 1/2" crack above the mount. Iv got more scrap and skill and time than I do cash to replace **** parts. Id rather just drop the motor once and armor this beast up than spend the $$ on a new frame that I will prolly tear up n no time. If nothing else Ill ty something different w this frame and if it doesnt work out Ill replace it. If it does than Ill never have to replace it again. Also Id like the cage to b out of the way enough that I can still get to the case covers to make adjustments and fill the oil, etc alil easier. Besides I need some practice tig welding aluminum
