I'm with Panic.. that oe tube frame is a nice piece the way it is imo (Paul Batts went 159mph with it and the stock '98 S1W motor - and I mean bone STOCK other then an ignition change). If you aren't going to use it and don't want much for it, I'd be interested in buying it from you.

Todd,

         I have a frame like that if Joe does not want to sell you his. I do not have the swingarm and I cut the tail off of it, but other than that it was a functional frame prior to me taking the motor out. I also have a clean title as well to go with.

I will know a lot more after I get motor mounts and set the engine in the frame ... the offset concerns me ... not a deal breaker but a lot of work ... I have a nice stock evo sportster frame as well as the S1W to work with if I decide to go another way. Scott has offered to help extend and rake the sportster frame similar to his Paughco ...

And he is Seldom Seen   

[Seldom Seen Slim]

Yeah, Seldom Seen indeed, especially on threads having to do with American V-Twins.  I know where I'm not knowledgeable...and stay the heck away most of the time.

joe did some measureing  the actual center of the motor is ----1/2 inch toward the cam side of the motor from where the cases bolt together--both of the bikes i have here are set up like that --with the motor like that you can run up to a 150 rear tire with a chain --if you havent pulled your motor yet find the center line before you do --simple things like pipes can change the balance of your bike---dont over think it though its not rocket science its just land speed racing ---and dont let all of the nay sayers scare you ---do what you want to do ---if they had there way we would all be riding those cookie cutter bikes  --- if you need anything let me know-----willie buchta
