I mean, you can buy the tape and the plugs, they're not that pricey.
I just didn't think regular masking tape would do it. Some powders, especially blacks and low gloss stuff seem to be 450F.

I have only one thing to say to someone that has done the research, has the knowledge and can generate the initiative to take on a project like this...

this is, in my opinion, the best way for bracing the front of the frame and still having room. Ill be doing the brace out of tubing and sheet, not just sheet.

"Heat Affected Zone"
I havn't made much progress, I have the engine completly stripped and I've been trying to make the bracing tube for around the headstock. But I have to say that I was struggling.
I was having probs scoloping the tube to fit the frame around the headstock nice tight. Anyhow I asked around about whats the best way and was made an offer I couldnt refuse. A local guru frame builder said he would do it if I did some engine work on a 900 engine for him.
He primarily works in aviation but builds frames as well, and is responsible for building the Aussie record holder in top fuel drag bikes.. amongst heaps of others.. and my welds arn't a scratch on his!
Anyhow, I'm going down another path now as well.
He suggested putting a cross piece in for various reasons, and it turns out his ideas are the same as the 888 frame(he didn't know that).
So hopefully I'll have it back next week.
I cant see that I'll make the bike show.. but hey, it aint biker build off, and I want it done properly!

I should have known that was a 748 frame! I had the engine out of mine about 2months ago! (in my defence of lack of observation, the brace is kinda hidden by the coolant bottle)
here's an 851 frame.
Mines done!
not the same as the 851 but the principle is the same...
here you can see the loops I welded on the frame. Clyde (the guy that welded the braces) suggested another way that I maybe should have gone... He reckons just weld a 6mm washer on with a couple of tacks then bend the sides up like a couple of wings. This allows you to get a cable tie through as well as cradle the cable.
these are a couple of lugs I welded on about a year ago to support the shock remote reservoir

also..
I'm after some Nichols engine mount bolts.
http://motorcycle.nicholsmfg.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&category_id=28&product_id=5&Itemid=53
the Nichols site has no way of ordering except ringing, and its a pain in the butt ringing from Australia.
Anyone know of somewhere else I can order them?

Not sure about that. Just ask them when you send an email.
