The Gasbox full frames are the highest quality and best engineered available. This frame allows direct bolt-in fitment for 1986-2003 Harley Evolution Sportster engines. All 1 inch tubing, completely TIG welded and made in Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Unlike other custom frames, the Gasbox full rigid frame uses stock motor mounts all around, with the engine cradled low in the frame rails just like a stock bike. This looks much cleaner and keeps the finished chopper looking lean and handling better with a lower center of gravity. The frame will require use of early style front motor plates (

or Harley OEM 16210-52 or A-22041), and also requires an early style kickstand.

The neck has a 32 degree rake and is in the stock location, this frame has no ‘up’ or ‘out’ dimension to the neck, is set up for a 1″ stem, and utilizes 1″ stem Timken style neck cups. This stem size is very common and is found on narrow glide front ends on Sportsters 1982 and later, and on Harley Big Twin front ends, including narrow glide, wide glide, OEM and most aftermarket springer front ends.

The

rigid rear hardtail section

has approximately 4 inches of stretch and is set up to have 2 inches of drop. This means that with a front end and wheels on the bike the lower frame rails sit 2 inches closer to the ground than stock for that perfect stance. The axle plates are set up for a standard 3/4 inch rear axle and accepts a stock disc brake Sportster rear axle. This frame also features integrated upper mounts for

The

allows easy mounting of all
