How many spots did you have to weld total?
Four or five spots. The first two pics are the same. I had to get the left and right sides welded where the motor mounts on a bracket on either side. Then one long one on the left inside and and small button got welded on the right inside as well.
I put the new generator in last week and am currently measuring valve lash. All of them seem to be in spec so far. I ordered a used radiator since the old one was all busted and had no tabs. Really after I paint the welds and mount the motor it should go together relatively quickly. I will need a few misc. bolts and little stuff but I think I can I have her up and running in couple of weeks. The big ticket item so far will be plastics.
The frame was the big thing that needed to be done and now that I got that done I feel a lot better.

cool, my old roommate bought a set of new plastics for his GSXR 750 for $450, think ebay and matched the old plastics, kinda metallic orange/black and think silver paint scheme. came from China.
