Some of you may recognise this frame from a post where a local (to me) lad was trying to ID what he had.
Turns out it was a German 250LC that has been modded to take a ypvs swingarm.
It turned out to be not what he wanted so he moved it on via Ebay, which is where I picked it up from.
I fancied an LC hybrid project to sit alongside my stalled f2 hybrid.
So in amongst some bits I bought last year for another bike, R1Z, the bloke pushed an FZR400 swingarm at me. So that looks like it's going to find a home in the LC.
I probably would've got the swingarm pivot machined down to fit the LC frame, but I've read Jon's excellent thread on spreading a frame. That combined with the current situation would mean an unknown turnaround from my mate who does the machining as a foreigner.
So frame spread it is. The white dots are where I'm thinking of, gulp, cutting it.
