Frame Rearrange
Posted On Thursday, November 26, 2009 at at 5:27 PM by RussWe'll the decision was made to basically start fresh from the handle bars back as regards to the frame. So a trip or two to the steel yard and a purchase of a tubing bender, the rear portion of the frame.
After using a piece of aluminum tubing as the template, the top tubes of the frame came together. The top tubes really does a good job of having the feeling of the frame the engine came from.
One of the biggest challenges that was faced in this project was the rear pivot and engine connection to the frame. After some pretty amazing freestyle fabrication this was overcome pretty well we think.
You can't redo a frame without doing a lot of welding. Well, there is a lot of welding going on in this project too.
