Is it possible to swap the frame from a curvy to new angular type....will every thing fit....now it is a race bike, and a street fighter...so it's not going to be a mint road bike....so is it possible with out much hassle ? Thanks all, Ady Wilkinson #8

dont mean to put a dampiner on this but why would you, iirc the curvy frame is concidered the better one (from what trusted members i know on here say)

No it's a pain in the tits for no gain.

And you will have problems "why have you put that old engine in a new frame". You will spend more in end.
