GIA offer's a top quality service using 7020 T6 Aluminium - bent and TIG welded to perfection!
Streetfighter History:
Gav reckons "Steve Burns pioneered them in the 80’s when he started modifying his road motorbike.” ...... And he thinks Spondon Engineering developed and manufactured the highly publicised ‘Monster’ sometime around 1991. At the time it was heavily featured in Performance Bike Magazine and information about it is still all over the web! Apparently, Spondon built the frame from Aluminium Tube, around a GSX Engine......
Trellis Frames - Made from big tube aluminium are light and rigid. The design can be adjusted to suit many different engine mounting points.
Beam Frames - Most sportbikes use a beam frame made from cast aluminium. It gives strength and rigidity. A custom built chassis is made from Extruded Aluminium Box Section. The design is limited compared to big tube frames but can look special if done well.
Cradle Frames - popular for 'old skool' motorbikes. Made from big tube aluminium, very rigid and showcases the engine.
Swinging arm styles vary. - The single sided swing arm uses one mounting point and creates a clean look. Fabricated from big tube aluminium - 7020 Aircraft grade material. Under braced, over braced and double braced swingarms. All manufactured from 7020 big tube aluminium - The limits are endless! 'Factory style' sheet fabricated swing arms are another option.....and all styles are made bespoke to your requirements
The British gave birth to the fighter, but many countries have adopted them. Look no further than Germany and the Netherlands for aggressive, 'beefed up' Streetfighters with high, short tails. Their Streetfighters have plenty of customisation and fat tyres. Martek Frames are popular. They love big tube aluminium - polished to a mirror finish......And so do we
