Ya the test piece on a flat face was better, but I went ahead and decided to try it in the curved surface.

I like the effect it has on the curved surface  [thumbsup]

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

anyone know what the stock frame weighs on a 95 era bike.  Whatever that frame design is called. 851 style maybe.

What's going on with the eccentric engine mounts. I want to see how those end up. May be a stupid question but you are going to wash that engine before you get everything put back together yes? What's the status of the swingarm as well. Your work is really impressive dude keep it up(that means get back to work ;D)

The eccentrics move the swingarm pivot.  The engine is hard mounted to the frame, no movement there. 

The engine will get dis assembeled, casting seams smoothed out, soda blasted and painted. 

The swingarm geometry is being finalized, and im currently building the linkage for it. Thats what im doing at school today.

Im going as fast as I can.

Inner bearing races for the swingarm





and made new wheel bearing spacers since the bearing size I need does not exist.

and finished my wheel spacers-adaptors so I can start the caliper mount.

Man oh man.  I wish I had half the ability in your little finger and all the tools at your avail.   [thumbsup]

If something you want or need is not available you make it.  That's just awesome.  Keep it up.   [beer]

What was the type of file format you used to have the winged logo done I thought I saw it posted but I cannot find it now. And does the format work on most cnc machines? This is just an awesome build by the way.
