Nice, i'm from Mackay, I think i have seen a lad on here from Moranbah also. I'm keen to hear about your ideas for your headstay, i'm just starting a 2005
450x.

True ay. Well with my headstay i was thinking of welding a mount off the front of the shock support mount like the cr250 frames but inline with the head mount. Keeping in mind to clear the fuel tank and room for the throttle cable to run free. Making the headstay mounts around 16mm thick should reduce the torque flex of the engine . But it only my ideas atm. What do u think.

I have heard that the offset head stay helps reduce the vibration, that's just rumor, it will also give you more room for the carb. if you go straight on, let us know if it works out good or if you have any regrets.
Welcome from the other side of the world!

Was going with the same idea with the headstay but have it offset, good luck with your project.
