Default Frame jig?

Does anyone know where i can find blueprints for a frame jig for a road glide? Or is there a better way to build one?

Also, is there any way to tell if your frame is bent without putting it on a jig?

I don't imagine any manufacturer is going to release design information, for building a new frame! As for checking a frame, there is a lot of stuff that can get bent, before the frame itself bends. Checking it accurately will probably involve stripping the bike completely. So tell us what you are up to and why you ask, so we can help you better! Also tell us model and year.

Ride it, there is no surer way of telling a frame to be true, go straight and take your hands off the bars, the bike should run true.
