Thought I'd share this with you all. A guy at my work, who is an awesome fabricator, built this frame right when the ATC 185's came out. He was working at C&J, a well known motorcycle shop in the mid 70's that built custom frames and swing arms. So we built a jig and was planning on building these to sell. Apparently just as he got the ball rolling he stalled and Honda eventually started selling full suspension ATC's shortly thereafter. He made two frames, full 4130 Chromo, the frame shown is fairly complete, he said would just need some tabs and gussets here and there, while the second frame is not as complete.
