Chain line

[Brian foord]

Got to cut frame out for chain clearance on the Kat. Do any of you have pics of it done? Cheers

Cut the frame !!!! Are you mad !

Hah! Check no class' build threads. He's got a really nice solution to chain clearance.

There’s some pics in my build thread in the projects section under ET Turbo, ET frame but same thing being done.

I put an RF900 wheel in my GS1000, 170 tyre, and I didn't had to change the frame, you're sure you need to?

 

Only way to check it properly is with a laser aligner.

What size heel and tire you fitting?

I put a 5.5 with a170 tire on my GS1000 with a GSX1100 swinger and there was no frame cutting, I have 2-3mm chain clearance to frame with a 530 chain.

I got a Busa 6" 180 in my Yoshi GS1100 that fitted with a little bit of fettling. No hacking of frame either

this is one i have in the shed, i dont know who actually did the work, the frame was the twin of the lucky7 katana bike built by one of the monthlys a couple of years back,  seems well enough done, though as you see its not been built up and used yet.
