Tune dude!! Thanks so much for the input! I believe that that is all solid advice. Forums like these are so helpful in the brainstorming process.
I think I will make the standing deck out of oak wood with angle supports that will rest on the frame. Hopefully it is snug or I might be taking a bath. I guess that's why they call it trial and error.
For the lean bar I like the pvc idea due to economics. Still running into the connecting and "modular" approach so I can remove with ease. Thinking about 3 feet high and 2 feet wide. I believe 1.25# d pvc should hold for light support and balancing. Not looking for anything overly sturdy, just enough to limit the shakes while standing up. Might "tee" in a couple of 8" long pieces for a thigh bar too on the horizontal stretch.
Motor info is solid and will need to figure a way to secure a second platform.
Buying,the trailer tomorrow and think I can rest the edges on the fenders. At 250 (on sale) and folding style, can't beat it. In sure I'll use it for other things too!
Thanks,so much for the advice. Any other ideas are welcomed! I encourage others in my position to add to the thread and I will give my 2 cents. As a young engineer and tooner my advice can only be taken with a grain but I am happy to add input.
Cheers!
