Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

They shouldn't be expensive, try searching for nutserts instead. You need to specify open or close ended. The setting tool is essential if you're fitting hundreds of them, but for just a few you can just wind in a high tensile cap head with a drill on a screwdriver torque setting which will set the...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

The bike picture that started all this has always had me yearning for a set of Supertrapp cone exhausts. Even though I like the exhaust I've made I think that it's not going to be practical. I've got a load of different types of foil backed heat material to attach to the aluminium number sheild in a...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

Hi guys, thanks for the tips. Right then, regarding the "SPAL "pusher" 5.2" it looks as if it might just squeeze in but honestly there's minimal room behind the rad. There's three problems, the forks lock to lock, the wheel travel & the rocker cover breather casting. If there...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

This is where I am at the moment, I'm looking into a fan or fans to take care of the cooling when things get too hot. I've tried to fit a standard item even a cut down version but it's just too big so I walked away till I thought of something & that something came to me about two weeks ago. Don'...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

Now with an abundance of fork springs to choose from I finally settled for a pair of the strongest springs in the box 11kg items. I can always go softer. The standard springs are 285mm long with 100mm spacers = 385mm altogether. I think the standard strength are 7.5kg but could be wrong. I've fitted...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

Another thing I've also managed to include into the linkage was to move the shock closer to the gearbox so I can use an unmodified swing arm with the Cbr929 shocker. I feel that the modded swinger would hold up but a standard one would be better/safer. So, with the rear suspension getting there, I'v...

Re: Project Varatrackerstorm or Firetrackerdero.

Right then, bits have been sorted but not much really. The modified rear tri plate linkage that I knocked up has been copied & I've made three of them. Well, two & a half to be honest. Two completed mild steel & one half built stainless one. The reason for three is that the mild steel on...

Re: Covid 19 virus

So are these folk also in on your conspiracy because they uncannily predicted a pandedmic years beforehand... Odd that you came to the conclusion that by me highlighting a few video clips other people made, you've deduced it's my conspiracy, love it.. Is there anything in the Alex Jones inspired vi...
