Default Need Help Finding A Frame

Hey guys and gals, i have an evo engine/transmission from a wrecked 94' Ultra Classic Tour Glide, and i have been searching for a bobber frame that would accept the transplant... i have been looking around for the last few weeks but so far no luck. the engine/transmission is tied together so the vertical support bar on most frames under the seat hinders the combonation from fitting. If there is any way that a roller could be had with a springer front end and 200 rear tire, that would be awesome!

any input in general would be much appreciated!

Do a search engine for Chopper frames/ Rollers, you'll find tons.
Paughco makes a lot of good frame/rollers, NASH, Detroit Bros., Chopper Gods, West Coast Choppers, on & on. Maybe you just wanna' find a custom builder & take 'em your engine & they can wrap a frame around it real easy. Sometimes you just need to give 'em a call explain what ya need. Lots of luck to ya. Keep us posted.

i think the touring bike has basically the same drive train as a dyna..you could use a dyna based frame.use your stock frame and chop it.all HD's have a engine trans combo since 99. im sure you could easily modify a newer softail frame to make it fit.. or look for a custom made frame online..
