Hey guys, I need to get my zx6r frame straightened up, and was wondering if anyone knew of a place in South Australia that could do so?

Cheers

Mick

There's a bloke over at Flinders Park - Bike Weld or similar. I hear he does a top job.

Jase - is it still legal to straighten frames over in SA ?? Recent legislation changes in Mexico have basically legislated Bob Martin out of business - at least that was the case towards the end of last year, apparently VicRoads would no longer approve any frames being repaired, even by someone with the fantastic reputation he had for fixing frames ??

How would anyone know, unless you had it listed with the Dept. of Transport as a write-off? Plenty of racebikes need frames straightened.

Good point - good thing it hasn't been reported as a write off. I'll be keeping my mouth zipped. But thanks Aardvark, cause I got a hold of someone who can do it - just gotta organise it. Many thanks.
