So, I'm guessing you have a welder and or tubing bender if you are going to go into a huge project like this, what is your budget if any, definitely check gopowersports.com, they have a lot of the stuff that you will need for this build. Also, are you building the frame from scratch or are you buying one?

Whats your budget? As this wont be cheap....to say the least...

In the UK???

The GPS wont be much help, as they are in USA... long shipping times... to you..

Unless you're already attuned to racing, speed, danger ect. I'd start with a little less ambition.... if you are then
giver! It sounds like a awesome build already!

For 6K I would buy something. This build will need a lot of skill, time, and money. If you have no experience in any of this, i would discourage you from going ahead with the project.

If yu do have experience, then have at it!!

Unfortunately we will probably not really be able to help you with where to get parts. I know the UK is pretty limited with that type of thing
