    Nothing to due , so I made a Frankinbike

    Tired of looking at my pitbike just sittin' there , so I picked up a rolling chassis ATC70 and combined the two!! The motor is a Lifan 120 w/ big valve head. The clutch is mounted on the main shaft so it starts in any gear. It also has a Kitaco inner rotor , Crower G2 cam and Yosh pipe. I used the heat treated aluminum subframe from the bike to mount the seat and plastics to the 70 . I'm probably going to replace the wheels and tires with aftermarket aluminum wheels and holeshot tires.

    I'm thinking about selling my RCM rolling chassis. I'd have to get another subframe, but the RCM is one plush ride. 5" travel in the best forks in the business, 10" of travel out back on a shock that soaks up anything you can throw at it.

    I just sold a new in bag front fender for the 350, maybe I should've saved it for your next wheelie, lol.
