I had no idea under the skin was a DOUBLE TUBE FRAME on this 260 I just bought. I stripped it to paint it and when I got to the bottom I stood back and was like holy hell.... It's twice as thick as my motorcycle frame and low slung with perfect placement of everything PLUS it has built in foot boards! Now I'm going to design a custom seat and do deletes of the front part of the frame that bolts on and holds everything past the tree. Hide all the wires, and rock this double tube frame. For comparison here's my 750cc cruiser vs the 260cc cruiser. Such a beefy frame and perfect for this project! I'll update tomorrow with daylight pics and progress.

The frame up close in the daytime. The mini ape bars are as big as my VN750's. After unbolting the front frame plate that holds everything there is still a spot for the headlight I choose to attach. It's pretty obvious this frame was intended for greater things because everything that is bolted to it unbolts to allow things to be changed out for motorcycle parts. This is no scooter frame.....
