    Whasing it is Highly illegal where I live. Furthermore, it’s extremely unethical. I’d not like to buy a vehicle that was salvage without knowing it previously.

    Changing frames would be OK, but I’m pretty sure that a new legal frame in good shape plus documentation and labor swaping it would be more expensive than the amount of money I’d be able to recover upon selling.

      Oh you have to do the swap yourself. On an older bike it’s a day or two. Newer bike, twice that. Just look for bikes for sale with blown engines etc.
