I would take the pegs and rear brake pedal with the rear suspension. I think the hardest part is that the swing arm bolt should go through the back of the engine. The engine adds a lot of strength t to the frame by design.
Love the second half of that quote! The frame has what it has remaining on it. Maybe he'll throw in some small parts if I can search them out.
He'll definitely want the whole $200 at that point. Didn't even think about that linkage. Hopefully the small details can be ebayed. Idealy the rear will get a disc conversion if possible...Thanks for that piece of information about the swing arm bolt also mounting the engine. What I'll do next is install the engine into the frame and see if this can really be done. That piece of info actually might make or break this project. If the swing arm bolt does not line up with the engine mount then I'll look into fabricating a new way to install motor mounts. If that's the biggest hurdle, then this is starting to look better. Thanks ohio!
