well i have an '86 Z50. but i want to take it and make it look like the '86 Z50 Christmas special bikes they came out with.

they sell alot of chrome parts, but i haven't been able to come across a new chrome frame. cant paint mine cus its all bent and don't want to buy a used one because it will probably be around the same condition..

so anyone got any manufactured or links?
or am i going to have to just find the nicest used one i can come across..

(doesnt matter if its a knock off frame either.. just as long as its stock size)
thanks in advance guys!

Chromie frames are very hard to come by on ebay, just like a lot of 1986 Z50RD parts.They are vanishing, Good luck on your search.

yeah, i noticed that as my search has gone on.
i decided to just restore it how it originally looked.

but im interested in a brand new stock sized frame for my bike.
i want to start with a frame and replace everything but the motor.

Buy a new stock frame from Honda or a clean used one on Ebay and have it chromed.
