Ok all they time I see on the internet pictures of custom sportbike like bikes with big twins in them my question is is there any companys that sells just the frames like that or do they all only sell them already built? I ask cuz I think it would be quite fun to build a custom bike but I don't like chopers and choping up a rice bike in to a street fighter is over done I would rather a custom street fighter with a big twin (just a a futer project)

There a company that uses a Fxr styl frame for a "sport bike". It's a long sucker though. I wanna fit a rc51 drivetrain into an XBR chassis for shits and giggles.

You can order the "V" kit from any "custom chrome" dealer.

There are several companies in the UK that do, or will, or can, make frames for anything you please.

That said, I'm sure there must be plenty of similar outfits in the US. Even the odd individual craftsman or three scattered about the country. What about the guys that build those flat track frames? CJ or someone? I forget now.

My advice would be to research your own custom scene more closely. I'd be very surprised if you couldn't find anyone able to help you achieve your goal.
