Thats a great idea to go with your gusset kits. I wondered why they never tied that in anyways?
Just an idea, but think about it.
If Honda had put that extra lower mount on the frame, probably wouldnt be, as many upper mount cross over tubes cracked on the new model frames, resulting in some owners replacing the frame altogether, so if they had those extra brackets in place, then replacement frame sells would be down.
Another item, chain guide on the swingarm.
If Honda had put that chain guide in place on the OEM swingarms, probably wouldnt have been as many left hand case halfs sold from the chain flying off, + chain & sprockets bent or teeth missing when the chain balls up between the front sprocket & swingarm.
Other items, grease fitting on the swingarm bolt, on new model swingarms, to lube between the bolt & spacer tube + to lube the bearings as well & a thicker cast OEM cylinder head, so it would hold more coolant & provide better cooling, + being thicker it could be machined on more & still retain its strength & hold its shape better.
A real big one that would have been nice if done, would have been if some cooling fins cast into the rear brake caliper, to cool the brake fluid. Because running flat track or TT, you'll end up boiling the rear brake fluid, loosing the rear brakes, trying to keep from running over them dang slow rolling into the corners 4 pokers.
Most everybody knows on flat track or TT, you run a 2 stroke into a corner wide open & then pitch it sideways to scrub off speed, but when you do, theres a stupid 4 poker in the way & you end up crashed.
So it all boils down to, where Tonys perfection comes into play, with the assorted gussets & brackets he offers to make the best sport quad ever produced, the TRX250R a longer lasting quad.
