Only seen a few on E-bay that don't have salvage titles. These are pretty hard to come by. My title was messed up by the DMV and it took 2 years and a Senator to get it fixed. At one point I was just going to get a new frame, but found there aren't many out there.

Frames are made in palatine il. I got one replaced under warranty. Google BWB

just curious, do you have a damaged frame? I am looking for a scrap 1125 frame for some developement work I am doing. If you have a damaged frame I would be interested in it. :D

^^ am I missing something here? Is the steering head a two piece part. Never seen that before on a bike. Sectional loads would be out of this world. [confused]

never mind. when i zoomed in, I can see the breaks. They want $500 for that. [down][down]

There used to be more but I guess they sold

ha. that's the exact add i was hovering above just about ready to buy.. as of the last 6 hrs things have changed..

the friend i bought this wrecked bike off of might need a motor.. poor decision in hindsight, his bike sitting for 2 years, gross oil changed out just changed before the ride, [new oil/filter] added.. about 2-3 hours of good pace..

long story short, sounds maybe bearing related.. right off idle, a knock. like that off a big bore single when the mains or con rod bearings are going.. rear cylinder from what it sounds like. we dumped the oil. traces of metal found in draining sump. noting large but looking more than just clutch material imo. have we saved her in time? soon see i guess.

im buying the wheels and front end/brake package, soo beauty. just what to put it on..

What does a good undamaged frame with title go for?
