v-rod frames

Hey how is everyone? I'm new here and i also did a search but could not find any info on this topic.
But i was curious if there was any type of vendor or company that sells just the main frame or chassis section with the enigine and electrical?
I've look on ebay also and could not find anything.
The reason i'm asking is because i would like to have a v-rod with mono swing arm and fat forks up front. But if i could save a few grand and not have to worry about putting up all those parts on ebay myself that would be awesome..
thanks in advance.

None come to mind. I've heard rumors of a chopper style frame designed for the Revo but haven't seen anything. Ricks, in Germany and Zeel design in Canada both offer single sided swingarm kits to fit the stock V Rod Chassis.

yes thank you,
i'm familiar with ricks and thats who i plan on going through to get the swing arm kit. i think i'm going to try and find a repo'd v-rod and try and get something that way. Its hard finding a bike thats being parted out with out frame damage.

If the price is right, get a wrecked bike. Then cut off the neck and 6" of frame tube and HD will send you a new frame with the same VIN for like $1500.

I'm sure there are a number of these joints throughout the country, but check out
http://www.crashedtoys.com/

There are generally quite a few HD's on that website.
