That's a decent haul of parts for seven bills. If you have enough of the stock parts, you'll only need a seat, oil bag, fender and tank to get that boxer frame on the road. They're pretty much a plug and play frame, other than a few tabs to weld. Keep the photos coming!

Looks like you had enough parts to make two decent bikes. Waiting to see what you come up with.

use the round ones to center your engine in the frame. (on the motor mounting bolts) Look close between the motor and the black mount on the frame and you see the silver for the round spacers. Made mine out of stainless so I could shine it up.

The long ones go from the frame cross to the rear top motor mount. (drilled mine for SPEED)

Juan is running a cycle X Boxer frame. Rides great.

Sweet!!! Now that you have the frame on your possession you can start really moving to get this thing on the road. The boxer frame is a great platform to build off of and the possibilities are endless on how you want your bike to look. Keep us all posted on your progress and enjoy the build!!

Here's another CB that we built off the boxer frame...

My only word of advise is to be careful when choosing which oil bag to go with because the clearance is super tight from the bottom of certain oil tanks to the chain. Other then that, I don't think there are any other issues. If i think of any, I'll post em up.

Since this your first build, take your time, think things out, ask a ton of questions and try not to do too much all at once cause it could get overwhelming and you could lose motivation which is a project killer. I'm sure you know all this but it's good to hear/read about it every once in awhile.

Good luck and once again, post pics as you go along cause we all dig progress pics!!

stick some washers in there to make up the space, then get a proper spacer made up when you can.
