Yea, I was looking at that neck bracing, it could be done but will be a pain. of course I would hate to see you build a nice ride and have title trouble, even a rebuilt salvage title ame be easier to get than a special construction. one of my rides is a rebuilt salvage and the only extra step was I had to get it inspected before they would title. and the title has a note that it is rebuilt salvage. I built it to ride not sell, so the note doesnt bother me. Of course that is all in Texas. so I dont know the rules in your state. either way you go I will make the suggestion to keep reciepts for EVERY PART you buy. I know alot of people that have had recieptless ebay buys bit them in the butt when it came time to title. at minimum keep a paypal reciept or something on the ebay buys.

How about starting with the salvaged Savage frame and extending it 2-4 inches.  Give more leg room and space for a larger tank.  That with the chain conversion would make the savage a pretty perfect bike (IMHO).
