    Hyosung GT250R 2007 frame bent

    Asking on behalf of a mate, he crashed his bike and bent the frame, does anyone know where to source a frame? He has been told its not worth straightening.

    Thanks

    No insurance, I presume?

    What are the legalities of changing a frame? Does it need to be certed?

    Who told him that and how do you know it's the frame that is bent?

    no, no insurance

    im not sure who told him it cant be fixed, he was gonna write the thing off, bit of a shame considering it was a tidy bike before the crash, shouldnt be too hard to find one with a grenaded engine for parts?

    thanks for the link, but doubt hes gonna be too keen paying 500-1500 to straighten his frame, we were kinda expecting to pick up a wrecked one for a couple hundy

    As far as I know ( and this is just off the top of my head ) it will need to be re-vinned or something along those lines.

    ( Helpful I know.)

    No it won't be too hard to find one I think but I'd say you would be looking at more than a couple of hundred bucks.
