Project started November 2022,
22 May 2023 The last few details were added, like taillight, chainguard and throttle cable. I am quite happy how this one turned out! Also added a simple animation I did myself and a much better one that was made by someone who actualy knows what he is doing, thanks Alex!! 24 April 2023 I added one of my-weld on clutch handles, the clutchcable, the shifter, a center- stand, the plug wires (coil hidden in/under fueltank) and even the generator wires 10 April 2023 Added the brake linkage from the Triumph rear drumbrake, through(!) the frametube, behind the transmission and to the midcontrol on the right side. Also added the footpegs and 5th transmission mount, and modified the kicker again.. 20 March 2023 I added the oillines, Antigravity 16-cell battery upsidedown in oil tank, changed the velocity stacks (making these in real life by the way) and modified the kickstarter so it is tucked in closer to the bike and a bit further back, to creat some legroom 27 February 2023 Modified exhaust, seat and rear "fender", added headlight and oiltank 5 February 2023 Added seat and "fender", Seats are tough to model in CAD! 15 January 2023 I modified the fueltank so that it has nice even gaps all around, then added some simple graphics, fuelcaps, fuelvalve and fuellines 30 December 2022 I completed the frame and started with the tank, also added the linkage between the carbs. The rear of the primary has been cut open for a bit more cornering angel and to show off the drilled clutch housing. I also added a "Cannonball" electric start kit, which is a product that I designed for W&W many years ago. 18 December 2022 Most of the frame is now complete, except for the top of the seatpost. I like a motor to be easily accesible so I made a removable frame section above the front head. The 2 tubes that go from the top of the seatpost to the rear axle are tapered to match the fork legs. Also added several new views. 10 December 2022 I completed the girder forks in the style of old Indians. with legs that are tapered from round to oval and then back to round. I also added the rear chain, always a lot of work... 28 November 2022 For the frame I will be using castings, with the tube sections between them slid in and then welded, much like the old stock Harley frames. The transmission has been lifted 1", and a rear wheel from a Triumph added. I started on the girder forks and added short velocity stacks on the Linkert carbs. I changed the pipes so they are tucked in more. Also added one of my Wavebars. It has been a while since I designed a bike just for fun and I am really enjoying myself! 14 November 2022 Started this project with a Panhead engine, with modified heads to accept dual carbs and a Vincent style exhaust. Then added a primary and a transmission, plus the wheel locations. This is enough to determine the steering angle and trail, next week I start with the frame!
