would you ride a bike w/ a rewelded neck?
 
so in this thread, dude says dad is having him cut the neck off a "bad" frame and attach it w/ the VIN to a "good" frame

now i've already told him it was illegal and whatnot

the question is would you ride a bike w/ some hack welding the neck of a bike together outta his back yard?

There are capable welders out there, but it's not the ordinary Joe that's for sure.

Yep.

Most bikes already have a welded neck, it's not much different.

I also ride on plugged tires.

That bike looks old school. An no I wouldn't ride it with a re-welded neck.

and they are also assembled on a jig and welded for precise angle, vs a hack w/ a grinder and welding rig in a backyard.

how can you be sure the angles are correct afterwords and the weld quality, hell zuki had to call back frames cuz they flubbed.

it's like a 96-98 ZX9R
