mackemforever Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I've been doing a bit of searching on this and have managed to find a few places that can do frame repairs, however they are all bloody miles from where I am, and so just thought I would check on here to see if anybody knows of somewhere that can do frame repairs that is a bit move convenient.So, anybody know if there is anywhere near Bristol that can do them, or near the M5/M6, so Manchester, Stoke, Birmingham.Thanks very much if you can help.

mackemforever Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 What needs doing mate? Got any pix? Doesn't actually matter. I've found a garage near me that is selling a 1999 SV650 frame for about £70, not from a Cat C or D write off, complete with log book, so I'm buying that and swapping everything over to that frame. In my opinion it is easier than getting my frame straightened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingah Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 best way and that way you get chance to check the full bike over when doing it And find all the (expensive) faults that were nicely hidden away out and sight and mind?I'd almost prefer not to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
