I found Speedway's kits doing a google search. Looks pretty decent, but I think the four straight center connectors would still allow some flex compared to Fatman's center tube design? It would still be better than not having any bracing at all.

Can't wait to see what you come up with.
I did search the site here and didn't find a whole lot. I did find some of "oldspowered67C10"s frame pics.

I found some of those pics when searching earlier, thanks for those links! It looks like you've got a good bit done to minimize twisting!



Keep the ideas coming guys!!
