I would suggest that you look at some of the '70s-80s 2-stroke motocross frames and engine from a Yamaha, Honda or Suzuki for a project like this. You can find a engine/frame like this for almost nothing because old dirt bikes are almost everywhere.

An old dirt bike like this is easy to customize and to find parts for.

Register it as a custom built motorcycle, not as a dirt bike.
I like the idea of using a dirt bike engine and frame, probably newer though, but in WI I'm pretty sure I would not be able to register and plate it.
