View Full Version : FXR 150 Frame - Sneaky Manufacturing?

Is it just me or does the FXR 150 frame shift about 20mm to the right between the headstock and the rear subframe? i.e. the headstock and subframe are in line but everything in between shifts 2cm to the right...

I can't tell if it is just the way I am looking at it or they have done it to save some costs in manufacturing, and still make the bike look good...ish.

The cylinder and head look way right when put into a TZR chassis. (no more details on that front, and it is probably just a coincidence that I am selling the CB 125T engine).

Anybody else seen this/ checked it out after reading this?
Just curious...

maybe the only way to get the countershaft sprocket tline up with the rear sprocket
