750k1 frame?

(1/2) > >>

Arch stanton:
Has anyone come across this??
I have stripped down my K1 frame ready for paint.
But rhe Bridge over the rear of the frame is pissed.
Looking from the rear. The bridge is about 10mm higher on the left.
This can only be a manufacturing fault.
As the frame rails are straight & measure the same distance apart as my straight F1 frame.
Has anyone noticed any anomalies like this?

UK Pete:
Early frames were aweful especially the welding

10mm is excessive, maybe a rear end shunt in its past life.

Arch stanton:
Everything else is straight & true. So I doubt its due to accident damage.
But going by the state of the dreadful welding. I think its down to poor manufacturing.
Let's face it. If quality control would pass that welding. They would pass anything.

Green1:
The welding is atrocious on both my K1's so much so I didn't even notice the rear end had been chopped off one of them and re welded on after what I can only presume was a failed attempt of a café racer at some point in its life. 
Yet another job on the too do list.  ::)
