I'm looking for something with a dead motor but with lights, indicators, brakes in working order. Ideally chain over shaft drive.

Why? I'm wanting to take the petrol engine out and put an electric motor in to build a round down electric commuter. eg something like either of these:

Idd be picking a bike with 17inch wheels maybe and spend a bit more on the chasis if I was doing it. Maybe a fzr1000 exup or thunderace roller.

Why in particular the 17 inch wheels?

At this stage ideally I'm looking for something with an aluminum frame to keep the weight down. Will see how lucky I get though.

17inch wheel for better tire selection.

I think I spotted a 400 rolling chasis on tard me.

Let me know if you find it again. I hate searching for anything on tard me. I set a search for all sports bikes under $1000.... it returns 25 listings ranging up to $10,000!
