The best way is to buy a new bare frame or take it to a really good welder. The new frame is the most reliable option but the second suggestion is the cheapest. You might also want to check atv/motorcycle salvage yards. Good luck.

What I did when my Mojave frame bent was I stood the Mojave on it side, took a steel bar and laid from the front wheel to the rear wheel. THen I took a hydralic jack and a chain, i sat the jack on the bar and wrapped the chain around the frame and jacked until it was a it was a little to far and let it stay like that over night. then I took the jack and it should be about perfect. Then I took a piece of steel pipe about the same size as the frame rails and welded it between the bottom frame rails behind the rear a-arm mount, like most Honda's. Weld up all the cracks and you are ready to go.
