Apparently, other that classes in CAD, you also need a class in reading forum posts 
I was not suggesting that you take a class on CAD.......I was suggesting that you find a class or program that will accept your crayon drawings, and.....the students in the class or program do the work for you, produce the finished products, then hand the finished items to your crayon stained hands.

That video was very informative.
Cad was something I attempted years ago but never prevailed in.
Seemed to find sticking points that stumped me without finding work arounds.
Got busy in true 3D and time went by.
The internet now is perhaps more? Informative?
Will watch how you get on here.

The drawings would need to be pretty accurate for a college student to competently recreate with CAD, as they don't yet have the hands on experience to confidently fill in the blanks. So if I'm going that far, using the design services of SendCutSend would most likely provide a better/faster result.
There are a few simple brackets for Speedy that should be a good start to learning the CAD. Will take the laptop into the garage this afternoon and get started.

slight change of plans. Went to sign up for the Onshape free program, and they wanted my phone number. All ready get enough spam calls. So I downloaded Free CAD. Big download went quick. Easy to install with no personal info required.
Noticed on the main page it can also do 2D drafting. Used to be pretty competent at that. So there is a sliver of hope. 😎

Step one: Simple mounting blocks at the upper front frame point.
Triumph included these two mounting points (one on each side of the frame) as the top mount for their upper crash bar option. The plan is to tie these points together with a plate and tube to limit stress at the steer head. In order to do that it will need blocks to fill those areas (area in green circle below).
Using a rare and specialized parchment (receipt from Ace Hardware) to create a thin-layer template this was created.
Then a rough working drawing was made to get the measurements.
Then it was on to transferring this all to Freecad. Using the line tool it was looking great, until the "save" function was chosen, where I learned that was the wrong way to do this sketch. I was supposed to use the Polygon tool. Now I get to figure out how to do that. lol Today's chore, after Miss Miles and I go for a hike.
If CAD teaches anything it is the importance of perspective. 😎
