I talked to the main guy at Streetmaster, last summer, told me that they wouldn't be doing our bikes, just Bonny s and Thruxtons.



So is it that they're just tooled up (jigs and such) for those frames or are they just asshats? It can't be that complicated. If there's a core charge it's not like they're fabbing these from scratch, just doing as you plan to, drill and weld bungs. Their price seems really high.

I'm assuming you're going to tap into the tubes near the top like they do and do a cross-over line at the bottom? I'll be interested to see how this comes out.

Thinking further about this, is there an issue with not being able to drain these tubes when doing an oil change? Or will you incorporate some sort of a drain provision into the tubes (or maybe the crossover)?
