Cost of a frame and logbook

[joeleeman]

Past few months have slowly been building a cb750 race type replica and I'm using a k7 frame. I was thinking of trying an earlier shorter frame before welding all my brackets on an I was just wondering how much I'd be looking at for an earlier frame with v5. Just to save me getting ripped of thought I'd ask some people who know
Thanks for looking, Joe

Frames seem to go for about £250 on eBay, though this one 400386922542 is starting at £180, which look like bit of a bargain with the swing arm.

Hi Joe,

If you do decide to make the change, I'd be happy to make you an offer for your K7 frame.  I've got every other piece of the bike - currently sat in boxes - and I'm looking to get started on a project.

Thanks,

Another quick question on the frames. Interchangeability. Now will my engine and front and rear ends from my k7 fit an earlier frame?

Engine yes, front end complete yes, rear wheel will require different spacers to fit an earlier swing arm

Well that's good to hear. Time to search for a frame then
