im looking for a rolling frame such as an RGV250, NSR250, GSXR250 kind of size/style frames with everything but the engine and electrics. Aslong as there is the following i am willing to negotiate a price:
Frame
Swingarm
Forks + tripple clamps
wheels with discs
working brake calipers
i know its a bit of a long shot but im wanting to get into bucket racing and want to make something decent to start on that i might be able to use later on for a different racing class.

Why not build your own frame? Go on, have a go......

been looking on TM, theres a few frames and bits on there but the owners tend to separate them out into swingarm, subframe, forks, wheels etc and charge shop prices on them.
would build my own, but i dont have access to any welding equipment, wouldnt have the first idea how to build a jig, and its been ages since i did any welding.
What i intend to do is modify an existing structure to support a different engine and probably customise the aesthetics a lil bit.

Might have something of interest to you Gareth, I have a 1995 NSR250SP (MC28) complete, the engine is not worth the hassle and i was looking at putting a big single in it.
Anyway it's the frame with the single sided swing arm, suspension is all adjustable and works well, brakes are still sweet, tyres still have heaps of meat on em (pirelli dragon evos) some of the fairings (which are already fibreglass race fairings) have a few cracks but nothing major.
I was and still am pretty keen to chuck a single in it as a project bike, but the right offer i could be tempted to part with it, if you wanna come have a look at it sometime this week, let me know.

I've got an RG250 frame complete except for engine. I'll be selling it at the HMCC swap meet in a few weeks, maybe $70. I should put a post up about that ay.
