So I finaly got a hold of a title to start my buld with. It came with this already hardtailed frame, think I'll use it too. I knew it was long but the seller didn't know how long. I thought it might be a 6" stretch, turns out its a damn 8"!!! I mean I think its 8", it measures 36" from the...

Hi, I'm wanting to start a XS650 Hardtail Bobber project. There are plenty of parts, and parts bikes, in my area on craigslist and what not, but none of them ever have titles. The only bikes that have titles seem to be the $1500 ready to ride ones. Thats not what I'm lookin for. Im lookin...
