I've been looking for another project for a little while now and got a raise at my job in a machine shop, so I figured i'd build a fighter. I was looking at the roehr sportbike frame and decided with my cnc skills it could be a fairly simple task. I also have access to professional welders, powdercoaters, anodizers, etc. I drew up a rough idea of how the frame was going to tie together. Basically it would be a two part frame, the main vertical column and the U upper which I plan to make out of steel tubing. I just picked up an 08 gsxr 1000 swingarm, wheel, shock, and right rearset all for $175. So its a start. I plan on getting a hold of some usd forks and an engine before I can finalize the plans for the frame. (mounting points, etc.) On that note if anyone has a good pair of forks laying around and would be willing to part with them for a reasonable price please message me. I'd love to buy within the fighter community opposed to salvage yards on ebay. Same for the engine. I've torn down plenty of carbs in the past and would like to get a hold of a running engine from around mid 90's to early 00's. If anyone has a bandit 12 engine that'd be the best bet I think.
Thanks for your time, like I mentioned before, any good parts you have lying around that you're looking to get rid of hit me up and we'll see if we can come up with a fair price
