Yeah. 3-UP has an awesome bike. He inspired me to make my own frame. I actually got into the design stage then found out how hard it is. Now I am making a bolt on frame cradle. It will require a hole near the head tube and some holes on the sheetmetal that the rear of the engine bolts too. So far I'm working out the kinks with a wood model. Will use 3/4 square tubing and 3/16 sheetmetal. 3-UP has the most awesome bike. That frame took a lot of work. I gave up halfway through design on mine. He finished design then built it. And I think it was worth it. He has an amazing bike.
