wanted king scorpion frame and swingarm

[ELC hunter]

Is it the same as a M54 frame or different?

[Nathan S]

Which model King Scorpion?

If my memory serves me...
44M (Automix King Scorpion) is basically like a 54M (75+ Enduro), but the Enduro has factory lay-down shocks and a lot less crap hanging off it.

I've got a 54M frame that I'm happy to part with, and a 44M that I'd need to be persuaded to part with.
Ring me if you're interested, k2000x.

I didn't know you were a closet Monty man Nathan - or is it a case you are just an out-of-closet hoarder .

I have a '74 VR, remember!
Picked up a '75 Enduro for parts at CD6, and a '74 KS from DG26. There's a vague plan to turn the King Scorpion into the club-level race bike, to save the Cappra from beig thrashed into the ground (remembering that the Cappra isn't even close to being finished).
But we'll see.
Considering that I've also got the MX250, DT250A, F11, and TS185 race bike, I wonder whether there's any point in having six pre-75 250s...

Of course theres a point to having 6 pre 75 250's Nathan...... so we QLDers can come down and be factory riders!!!

I'm not sure about the 54m enduro frame Nathan but I do know for sure that the King Scorpion and VR Cappra share very similar geometry and construction with one notable exception. The Cappra is made from a Spanish equivalent of 4130 ChroMo tubing and is very light. The King Scorpion frame on the other hand is made from 4mm wall thickness low quality mild steel and is as heavy as shit. I once fitted an XL350 Honda engine into a King Scorpion frame but abandoned the project and sold it to forum member Slakewell when I discovered the Scorpion frame is actually quite a bit heavier than the stock XL frame which ain't no lightweight in itself! :'(
