Can you post a link wear I can get that frame? Shipping will suck but it's worth it. A Honda GC- 190 or 160 would slip in nicely.

I bought my bike from a Polish guy, who bought it from a german dealer- in total I bought 3 bikes - I know that this guy does not have them anymore... :(

hi -Yes, one of the bikes has a black frame with white tyres as per the photo

I'm looking for a cheep way to eventualy transport bike to You - It will not be as easy as it seems to be ;-)

The distans is huge


Uploaded with ImageShack.us

- Shippnig by air ( the chippest option )

UPS or DHL - 870 $ ... :-{ more than twice as a bike ....

The box with the bike is 170x10x100cm and weight 29 kg

I am looking further...
 
that is a lot! I have found that when using UPS & DHL from the US that it's very expensive; their domestic postal system is the cheapest (USPS) & it connects well with our system here.
Does your Polish domestic postal service handle large items like that via tracked airmail? Ours & the US ones do. Ive found that's the cheapest way.
 
Too bad the company went under, that's a really nice frame design for a motored bike/ light motorcycle. I was picturing a nice model 1932 Sachs sitting in that frame... in frame tank up above with lots of fuel capacity. How well are the frames made? Plug and play bike... unlike the Worksman frames many of us use which have little room for an engine of any kind without modifying the frame. If I lived in Europe and used ones were to be found, that's what I'd look for. Shipping is the killer... a Worksman to overseas or something like a Velor to here. Ouch. Welcome to the forum!... very nice build you have going. I'm sure you'll get lots of compliments as you right it around Warsaw.

Pat is shipping a Worksman frame to me in NZ soon. Ive asked him to use USPS which will be cheaper than UPS or Fedex.
It doesnt cost too much to get a motorcycle frame sent here from the US so it will be an interesting exercise with the worksman frame.
I would like to bring more worksman frames in, & his in frame tanks, because those worksman INB frames are unknown here & it would seem a shame for us kiwis to not get to enjoy doing some stuff with these cool frames & tanks.
I have found out that someone did a few Indian replicas in one of our Southern cities (Christchurch) but those are the only MB boardtrackers Ive seen here. They chopped up girl's bike's frames & made their tanks from scratch. here's the ones they did.
I asked them for info but they didnt share much, they referred me to the other forum, & told me to build from pictures :-)

YO! Loco! Update? I still lust for that frame. PS: can you tell me what size are the white tires? I see in the first pic black quick bricks fit I'm wondering about 26x2.35 and if you can go that big is their any room left between tire and frame? Thanks.

He got me a shipping quote to New Zealand a while ago, but I had already ordered my parts from Pat by the time the quote came.
 
Hey Loco! Check this out! Looks like a close match for your frame! 1925 Opal Motoclub.
