Inspirational Kim,
I love your builds because everything comes
together quickly, even if you hit snags. This thing is
gonna be ridiculous!! Can't wait to see video of your
drunk ass doing circle burnouts!!
What kinda brakes are you going for? Are you gonna
use a suicide shifter with a beer tap handle?
Thanks
etard
Dunno about doing doughnuts buddy but im reeeeally
hoping she wheelstands well, when i used to ride
before my accident there wasn't a bicycle or a motorcycle
(
with exception of mates Harley) i couldnt wheelstand well...
HAHA i can pull indefinite wheelstands in my wheelchair
LoL...Yes SiiiRee i'm wanting to stand this bike on its rear
BADLY so expect see that before anything IF its capable :: wink ::..
Brakes will be disks front and back buddy. Shifter will be
the stock job that comes with the EXTRA wide Sturmey
Archer 3 speed sold by Alan at Choppers US-->
Its BIG and chunky looking my mate has the exact same
hub on his crusier, WHERE i will mount the shifter though
is uncertain till i have it here and put it up next to the bike
see which position looks more appealing
Grinhill....the stabiliser wheels will actually NOT
be as in the picture but further towards the rear wheel
buddy, i will DEFINITELY be upping some sketches before
tackling the stabilisers, i think i will also wait until i have
the linear actuator AND reduction drive as i STILL am in
two minds WHERE to mount the linear actuator. I
have designs for mounting it along the bottom tube and
on the seat tube either front side or backside BUT need to
see where
Mr Recumpence SIRs reduction drives
looks best i would like to put it behind the seat tube i THINK
i have allowed adequate room for this but want to make
absolute sure before going ahead with the stabiliser setup...
Update
Today i started work on the seat pan/support that the actual
seat itself will be fastened too. I am NOT using the seat in
picture...i had this seat on the first trike i built, i cut it down
a lil too much and is now too uncomfortable for my unstable
pelvis, I shall pick up a new one from Movement Systems
for final assembly, the one in picture is merely
for "
mock up" purposes....ok that out of the way...
Pics of today's progress-->
Pretty self explanatory i think? the front pivot hole
i have welded a tube through, this will have
LIBERAL
amounts of graphite grease applied when final assembly
happens this should ensure a squeak free pivot and
hopefully not wear excessively. I was going to go with
sealed bearings but finally after procrastinating over
it for few sleepless nights hahaa chose the K.I.S.S method.
I only need weld the front plates on they are shaped
ready for fitting but it was late when i finished and the
light was gone (
my garage has poor lightening need the
sunlight when welding or cant see what the frock im
doing hahaa.) Will weld these plates first up tomorrow
along with the bracket for the mini shock and the rear
seat shock mounts will also be cut and welded to the
pan...totally forgot these but again was late so wouldn't
have gotten to them anywayz
Thanks for the positive feed back fellas as always much
appreciated, shall be back tomorrow with another
update of the days activities...till then its hooroo from
me
KiM
EDIT: GREAT NEWS!!! Matt just advised me my motor
has arrived along with the Throttle interface I purchased
from Mr Fechter Matt informs me 7-10 days approx and
he will have the Drive ready for shipping WOOTz all
happening
