I just recently bought a 07 R6 from the salavge yard for a price I couldn't pass up. The problem is that the frame is cracked and it would need to have a frame swap done. On ebay they sell frames on there for my bike that comes with titles that can be registered.

My question is, has anyone every attempted a frame swap and how hard would it be. What tools would I need to accomplish this? I've done engine rebulds, motor swaps, and turbo installs on cars but nothing every in dept like this on a bike.

It's easy. I've rebuilt plenty of bikes for wrecked racebikes.

There are reputable companies that can weld that right back.

Locally, we have Britt Lynn (Matt Lynn's father). He is very good at welding race frames back together.
