      Norbert,

      If I understand correctly, you are looking for a racing style chassis to fit your Yale V-Twin engine to, correct? You could ask these guys, if they don't make it they may know someone who can:

            Norbert, for what you want to do, I think you will have to build your own frame. I don't know if I've seen a period picture of a 1914 vintage Yale racer. I'm sure there must have been privateer Yale racing bikes, but I would be a bit surprised if the Yale factory sponsored a team, particularly since Yale pulled the plug on motorcycle production in 1915. But don't let that stop you. You can scale old photographs to lay out the frame, fork, and gas tank; and pedal cranks, wheels, seats, and associated parts are available via aftermarket craftsmen. Look forward to seeing a picture of your motor. One of my regrets in this hobby is passing on a 1912 Yale twin. I kick myself for not buying that bike.

              Hello Eric,

              to find a Picture from an completley motorcycle is very difficult. I have found the engine in the laest year. It was completly with schebbler but without magneto.
              Here an Picture from the engineBild 2.jpg
