Redesigned bed frame for Yamaha G2
This is my 1980's Yamaha G2 that I bought after it had an engine fire. The back body section was basically toast so after thinking what I could do with it, I decided to turn it into a utility cart. This cart had a diamond plate utility box when I bought it but the original supports were to unstable and plus the thin pieces of flat metal wouldn't look right without a body. So, it was time to junk those and build something better.
Cut out the old frame for the body. New frame welded in, primed and ready for paint. So what do you guys think? |

Re: Redesigned bed frame for Yamaha G2

Is that your slave in the background who really does all the work? It looks awesome! That will be really cool when you get it finished. |

Re: Redesigned bed frame for Yamaha G2
Thanks everyone! A flat bed would look good. I have the sheet metal to make it and then some angle iron to go around the sides as a base to strengthen it.
