Personally, i wouldn't describe designing and building a bespoke tubular frame and subframe as a 'simple modification'.
You must be an engineering god.

Assuming the standard frame was still in place then the side tubular stuff would just be cosmetic, I'd imagine that would be simple enough?

Not so sure about the rear subframe stuff though.

It must be a pretty sucky bike if you want to spend all that time making it heavier and look a bit random, rather than riding it!
Instead, I suggest you find a bike you like riding and spend your time riding it. Wink

tubular frames will be a piece of piss to make as long as you can spot them in situ.

its your bike. do it.

You could get yourself a nice fat engine and squeeze it into the frame and leave stickers on saying its a 200/250cc??

Is there a power limit or just a CC limit? Could you import some sort of jap 250cc 2 stroke engine from the 90's for a bit more power? Something like a TDR250 engine or an RGV250 maybe?

KTM 200 EXC - it's not road legal at the moment (I ride enduros, motocross etc on it), but I plan to make it road legal as I have a set of supermoto wheels that will fit it.

If you are allowed to ride a KTM250EXC, you've got similar power to weight ratio of a lot of Ducatis (50hp or so claimed, but only just over 100kgs real weight), along with very nimble handling on SM wheels that will handle bad roads pretty well.

I'm sure, if you wanted, you could acquire one without going to a main dealer some how.
