you didn't specify for which bike?, 500, 250, 125...etc.

if you can't get one through Kawie, your options are pretty limited...there used to be a company that made aftermarket alloy subs...but I'm not sure if they're still around.

you can try this guy...not sure if you'll get lucky...but I've heard/read that they bend easily..

   ive got one of those aftermarket alloy subframes. sitting in the shed with my extra 500 frame. the only thing i didnt like about it was the bolt thread inserts all spun too easily and io had to drill a few of them out and replace them with bigger stronger tighter grip ones. didnt seem to have any structural problems otherwise.

yeah, I've heard more bad than good...but then again, it's just hear-say...I've never bought one to see for myself.
