After Market Compliant Frames

     Just wondering if anyone can suggest some aftermarket rigid frames which are street legal off the shelf.

    For example I got a basket case donor bike and want to bolt all parts into a new frame and roll into Vicroads and get it registered without any extra hassles, red tape with ICV, engineering etc.

     

    Can I do this with a Flyrite frame or Sucker punch Sally, etc???

     

    Experiences?

    So Chopaweeza what does it take to get the frame approved? What cost is involved, obviously your or your customers must have done this many times over.
    Can this be done before assembly separate from the total build?



    Houli - looked at just bikes online couldn't find that ad.

    I ain't actually got the donor yet but rather got one in mind a late 80's girl's bike (aka sportster). Also looking at the auctions for wreaks. No point spending the $$ here trying to save some if the process chews up the savings and I could have just bought something at the end price. If I made sense.

    So trying to figure what I'm up for and gotta do before I hand over the cash, at same time gotta do it before they get bored of me an sell to the next bloke who is not so cautious.

    I sell Kraft Tech Frames and advertise that the meet Aust Standards, as my Standard Stock Line do,
    Kraft Tech also make lots of other Frames that dont.
    The critera the makes the Frame comply is the Rake comming in within the 550 mm Rule, The Ride Hight being more that 120 mm and the Frames have a Serial Number and MSO.

    There is a company in QLD advertising that their Frames have a Engineers Report with them, This is not a requirment and the whole Bike has to be Engineer once it is assmebled. a report on the Frame only is worthless

    I live in Queensland and I want to buy a stat wright off to put on the road can I buy a matching soft tail frame Australian compliant to match the donor bike if so I want to know. I hate seeing Bikes going to scrap Flood damaged,minor cosmetic drops, Insurance claims I really need a answer.Cheers.

    This was a good find for me as I am thinking about my next project and was going to start from the frame up. Maybe I am best buying a "donor" bike, strip it and start again!!
