Interesting, no downtubes. Looks like he's just had to change the plugs

Strategically placed stone at the front wheel.

Obviously designed for another engine, but doesn't look quite right to me. I am no frame designer, but spindly tubes and a tortuous route from headstock to swingarm pivot, with little triangulation or bracing would appear to make for interesting handling to me.

Perhaps the heads are bolted to the frame to make it a stressed member, but it certainly doesn't look as strong as a standard frame. I stand to be corrected

french bike I know the seller who is a profesionnal mecanic man who restaures K triple, Z1 and CB four.
He said the bike is authentic but I don't beleive this frame was made for H2.

No, it looks like it was made for a much longer engine, maybe pre-unit Triumph or BSA?

Yes, you can see that the inner head nuts are extended and are used to make the engine a stressed member. I cant say I like the idea but it's a pretty bike.
