Back to the drawing board with the frame. The problem with stop/start progress is that things get overlooked. Setting up the exhaust mounting and the seat frame at different times meant that I designed a disaster. A muffler that required the seat off to mount, and a seat that required the exhaust off to install. Glad I spotted it early. Made a few mounting brackets, Modified existing engine mounts and designed a battery hanger. It's a lot of work getting a custom frame to work....
Visible progress has been slow, but lots of little jobs have been done that nobody will ever notice. Motivation low to do time consuming work, so fitted 2 headlights that I had to see some shapes. I Don't think either is right, square one sits too low and round single is too big. Plan at this stage is for twin small singles. Just food for thought. New wiring loom backbone is done, will be time to test run soon. |
