Very interesting project. What engine is that you're using?

Is that upper frame member going to double as the tank? Please say yes.

Thanks for the comments fellas. It's all about entertainment! The engine is a Yamaha 250 V-twin that was laying around from some previous project.
The frame was basically built to make use of the spare engine. As to the frame tube being the gas tank question...I'll get back to you, maybe. It's oval exhaust tubing.
The girder turned out pretty sweet IMO.

Is exhaust tube wall thickness going to be strong enough for a frame?

This will certainly be entertaining. That large of a cross section with this small of a bike, exhaust tubing should be fine.
The girder did turn out great. Are those all custom pieces?
My only criticism so far is that I don't see how you are going to adjust drive chain tension, but I'm sure you've worked that out.
