Cleaning up an XS650 front motor mount

Here is a comparrison between the stock and the stripped down front motor mount.  With the mount in a vise, I used an angle grinder with a cutting wheel to open up the sheet metal shield enough so I could get a chissel in to pry the thin outer metal piece off.

The direction

Here is a couple of update photos.  The bars are from Front Street.  The Hardtail is TC Bros tig welded by the guys at Monstercraftsman.  The tank is a Seven Sins Choppers tank. Hardware is stainless stell.  The seat hinge is a Biltwell stainless steel hinge.  Don't know how many of these I'm gonna build so figured I'd build it like it was the last one.  Anyways I like the direction this thing is going
