New frame might be stronger but you have to consider how difficult it will be to register a new frame which varies by the state you live in.

I am a Pennsylvania Inspection Mechanic. Once it passes state inspection, by me 
, I take the paperwork to dmv to have vin plate attached or vin stamped on the frame. I have talked with them already, and the process here is quite easy from the people I have talked with. I have connections in this area too which just might be helping me a little too

It cost $149.95, and I have to provide all receipts and an affidavit stating I built the motorcycle and where I got the parts from. They need to know that none of that parts were stolen. Then they take a ton of pictures, inspect it for safety issues, and take it for a 3 mile test ride. Once that is done, I have to go to the local notary they submit the forms, and the state issues me a vin. All in all the process cost about $300.

Which is why a most of us just modify existing frames. Or you could register the stock frame, cut the neck off and build a new frame around it. That helps too.

Ardcore can make you a new frame using the neck from your frame. Some can others... Hugh I think...
