frame
im in need of a frame for a shovel,pan,,anything but a sporty -- frame doesnt need to be in good shape as i only need it for a mock up-- there was one on ebay that the neck was cut off,shock mounts cut off and really butchered.. i only need it to have the down post top rail,motor mounts so i can bolt a case 1/2 in it and take measurements where the rear exhaust hits the down tube. i have a project going that has 2 front heads and the rear exhaust is now the intake.. i need to set the head on and get the correct angle for the intake spogot... the carb will sit where the battery use to be. i dont want the carb to sit to close in but i dont want it to far out.. anyone have an old junk frame???

#1 i have a big dog frame all i really need to do is tig a down tube to it to get the angles for the rear intake----
#mike sorensen makes the heads anyway you want them for $2500 -- i didnt want the carbs to stick out like the XR1000 i have them where they are closer in and in lign with the frame and they dont get in your way like the XR750/XR1000's did .. i had to remove the battery and the oil tank --- the rear fender as you see is a old GG/MC frank fender a 5 1/2" boat trailer fender fits under the fender like it was custom made for it --- thats the oil tank -- the battery is turned 90 degrees and in a custom made box thats a spider web -- the coils sit on that also and the oil filter -- the throttle cable for a 1080 el tigra jet ski fits the 2 38mm mikuni's its a 2 into 1 cable and it has the 90 degree bend.. motor mounts are snubbers 1 per head -- petcock is gone and i have a primary 1/2 gallon tank that a 3 to 5 lb electric fuel pump supplies its hidden under the fat tanks -- this ISNT my first rodeo -- i had dual carbs on an old knuck in 1969 rode all the way to tracy,ca on that bike in nov 69 -- did the 2 read heads -- pan/knuck heads on 1 engine -- i was building 100+" bikes in the 70's when no one knew what they were.. even used a old toyota head to make a 4 valve engine on a harley -- lots of tig welding on that.. the pentroof design 4 valve heads flow more air and an engine with a 3.5 stroke and trock 3 13/16 cylinders (82") runs like a 150" of today -- the heads are the key -- trock made the cylinders and even before we knew what an EVO was we had flat top pistons and 4 bolt heads -- only because the toyota head had 4 bolts --
