You could do that or with some square tubing "triangulate" some bracing for the bottom of the transmission tunnel. Just a suggestion.

Again, beautiful machine and I love the induction system.

Do you have pics you can share of yours? I wondered about that myself and have been thinking of a plate there like my Bugeye sprite had all those decades ago.
