I took a hacksaw to my frame.....

That's  a lovely bit of work.
I once chopped the bottom rails out of an old 400 frame to allow me to fit a VFR400 engine in. Sadly, my imagination far outweighed my ability...nothing has changed...

SumpMagnet:
@archmill ... very wise. If you get stuck like I did, just message the guy who makes them. He'll help you out. He's a top bloke.

I did have a few nervous butterflies as I made the first cut. I will admit I had checked prices on a replacement frame and had one on my E-Bay watchlist.....but sometimes in life, you got to just jump in. It's like your first go at skydiving. You throw yourself out of the plane at 30,000ft and learn on the way down. If you are a quick learner, it's all fine....If you fail, then don't do it again.

VFR motor would have looked cool in a 400/4!

I actually really enjoyed doing this (aside from the jammed thread thing) and am seriously thinking of getting some proper lessons in welding so I can do more.

Yes it's a major disadvantage of maintaining the 750s.
You must be very satisfied.
And only the owner will ever know.
