Frame Info
Can anyone tell me some info on this frame.. Looks like a straight leg. I love the way the motorcycle sits, quite low. What stretch? What rake? I don't believe this is a stock frame unless its just the way the motorcycle is sitting when they took the pic.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

Can't say for sure, trumpet exhaust covering rear frame lugs. But I beleive it may be a 1954-1957 staightleg OHV HD OEM frame. Moulding around neck and majority of tabs cleaned up, makes it hard to be for sure. Nice clean solo look.

Gotta dis-agree..looks too clean in the neck area where the lower of the two backbone tubes join the down tube ..it's even cleaner than my Jammer ridgid and I just went out and compared it ...and harley would be a casting there ....only my opinion
Ole T Sport where did you get that picture of the radial engine in the bike ? That is WILD ...I have an industrial shop at a place called.. aircraft cyl head ..which was the last factory (not small shop or individual ) that rebuilt radial engines and Jim Fueling was working on a 3 cyl bike engine that would have looked like about 1/2 of that engine in the pic......before he died ..........

Got me thinking today of Jammer today and that 3 cylinder Harley in the Easyrider mag from the early 80s. Gave away all my old bike rags when family arrived. Got another pic of a different Radial bike.
