Hi you all overthere.
One of my buddies fell down  Embarrassedwith his bike and have to change the frame. Do you know if there is some difference between the frame of the standard Valk and the Interstate one??
Thanks.

Yes there are some differences, but I believe if you stripped a standard, you could install all the parts on a Interstate frame.....

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the rear upper motor mount is different (rubber mounted on the I/S instead of solid on the standard/tourer).  If Kingbee ever gets back on here after his crash, I think he's had both torn down completely and could tell you of any other differences.

The rubber is in the mount on the engine block, not in the frame.

Hi Yann - make sure you have Euro model lower fork yoke with Euro frame or USA frame and USA lower yoke.
We fitted Euro forks to USA frame when rebuilding BobbieValks bike and the security locks are different.
Parts fit but the forks do not turn thro as great an arc - and of course we lost the ability to lock the steering.
No big deal just awkward in Pub car parks.
