Frame was $100 / £45. i already have a heap of 1100ET spares, B-King wheels, and may use my Bandit as a donor.

Currently in talks with a local mad dragbike frame builder / Zed head.
I'd like a 6" wheel, 200 tyre, nice chunky chain, and decent clearance between both the chain / tyre and chain / frame.
Maybe a GSX1400 swingarm,

Apparently Bandit 5.5" / 180 / wheel and swingarm conversions aren't that hard. You can buy a "Kit" that has top hat spacers, off set sprocket and weld on shock mounts. Certainly an easy option but not exactly what I'm after.

Also been told that the GSX1400 arm is quite bulky around the spindle. Not ideal if you use a GSX1100 motor as its too tight a fit ?
Shouldn't be an issue though with a shorter Bandit / GSXR lump as there's room to move it forward as many do to save extending the exhaust stubs.

Just collecting parts untill I can get it in with the guys who's doing my frame. He normal works on big Zeds and Dragbikes. I think there's 4 frames in front of mine. He built the supercharged Kwak I posted in another thread.

Might not be much for a while. Had a chat with my frame builder. He's quite busy and not cheap! Still keen but won't be happening over night.
That's not all bad. I'm still collecting parts and have other things on the go.
