Seeing your scooter is broken, maybe this will cheer you up...

Did he have Dave Dobben and racist anti kiwi abuse thrown at him too?
Seriously... whats he done/doing about it?
Having nearly finished stripping it down, I've decided that it should weld up fine. I'll weld some bracing in around there at the same time.
I do think I'll get it put on a jig somewhere while its apart tho, just to make sure its all straight!

Sorry cuz, didn't mean to stir
I'm guessing it's a fatigue issue, but to cause it.. I'm thinking maybe engine mounts, as they are the 'give point', but in the photos it looks like your running 2 hole Indian? I'm a bit lost..
Are you power sliding around corners?

UPDATE:
I took it to a guy called John at JBW restorations up in Gloucester.
Thanks to Shocky for recomending him!
He put my frame in the jig, sorted out my engine mount, then spent another few hours soring out my forks (which were all over the place!)
All up he charged me next to nothing!
I'll post some pics up later once I get it out of the car... He's done a great job.
I'll post up Johns contact details too when I get a chance - absolute top bloke

We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm

The exact same bloke I was going to recommend as both Shocky and I live nearby. In fact I think he was waiting for your frame to turn up when i was there last. I'm glad to hear that you're sorted now.
