There are quite a few companies, new and old, building motorcycle frames and selling them, either as a stand-alone part, or as part of a kit, or in a complete motorcycle.
Is there a code or standard that applies to this practice? The material is mostly 1018 or 1020 steel tubing, and sometimes chrome-moly.
If there is a code, are there weld procedures or certifications to comply with?
What kind of protection does the consumer have, besides "buyer beware"?
Thanks, Bob
