Yeah donor frame was something I bought as a project and has been really cut up ,I'm left with the front end tube and a few odds and ends,have been thinking of building bike for straight liners like an auto sprinter,but knowing me I will never get round to it :biggrin:

Got any seat loops kicking about :)
heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it does fail, hit them with it!!!

This is a Winter Model frame (not the one I'm selling) that I just couldn't leave as a scrap if there was any chance of repairing it and to put it back on the road, I also have the matching engine, and these Winter Models are getting hard to find now. I approached Dean who stepped up to the plate with empathy for what I was trying to do, and I have to say what a fantastic job he's done on it.

Nice one Dean ;)

Give us the story behind the frame in the first place. What kind of frame is worth that effort besides a TV 1 or SX/TV 200? I saved a SX 200 case with broken motor mounts and added a strengthening gusset. The welder is the best welder/fabricator in Hollywood.

Whoops, say the answer. That's great work and it is nice to see folks making instead of wrecking.
