In the bottom picture, it looks like it's made to have a brace there, by continuing the frame tubes.
Thanks euromodder, that is exactly what I am going to do However, I plan on using the frame mounts for the top of the exhaust hanger + another mount just a bit lower to create a triangular brace to the mid-bulkhead. There are three in-line bolts there. You can see it just below the frame tubes you mentioned.

Plus, I will be adding a bracket connecting the bottom of the main bulkhead to the bolt where the exhaust hanger/rear foot peg mount is located. On the rear portion of the tail have a thin diagonal brace going from the bottom corner to the top of the mid-bulkhead.
