Right through the backbone? Had the swingarm and axle/shock stuff still attached but all the cables and wires and everything in the front half totally gone? Some of you guys have seen that before right?

I know a guy who has a multi million dollar atv business, he sponcered me when I raced in the 90s.

He found a HUGE stock pile of trike parts down south and at the time he mainly sold used parts so he bought tons of those cut up trikes.

The rear ends of those trikes were cut out, basically everything was cut out. One time he bought maybe 20 250r swingarms that had frame still bolted to the swingarm and to the top of the shock.

motors with the cradle still attached, front ends with the neck still attached ....ect

The frames were not simply cut in half from what i've seen.

If anyone can find some pictures of that kind of stuff (I've seen it on here years ago so I know a few are floating around) I'd be very interested as I'm gonna write an article about it.
