    I don't like how you only have one angle to view the quality of the thing.

    It DOESN'T say its a Franks

    Buy one and inspect it. Why doesn't someone ask them if they are making them? If so what material? Maybe they could build one for a different machine.

    I listen to most of you B*tch and complain about the lack of manufacturer interest, but if or when someone does come up with something you question it and /or tear it apart . I haven't seen much from any of you.

    Where did it say it was a Frank's?

    I own both a Franks and a Champion. Like TRIZTUNES said it is a Champion or maybe a Champion replica!! But if it is a replica that would be awesome if someone is making them cause nobody else makes an extended swinger for them. I have a hard time believing that if they built them that they could make money on them at $125!!! Just my 2 cents!

    It ain't about the money, or even being #1, you gotta know when it's all over you did the best you could of done! And knowing that it's in you and you never let it out, is worse then blowin' any engine or any wreck you'll ever have!

    I'd bet two-bit's they are the company building that swingarm. I looked at the other items the seller has for sale, seen the logo on the truck, then looked up there website. At least the location of the bike company is the same as the swing-arm sellers is in Redondo Beach, CA.
    That site doesnt offer info on material used in their frames. But there is a contact area to inquire about more info for those that are interested. http://www.sickcycles.net/contact_sickcycles.php
