Project started
December 2020,
See the CAD version here




In the first pic, if you look closely, you can still see the
original location of the fuelvalve. I moved it so that it will
be exactly centered between the heads of the engine. Earlier I
had removed the stock lower tank mounts and the little tubes at
the bottom of the tanks where the connecting hose normally goes.
I want a cleaner look and not to have to drain the fuel to remove
the tanks. I added 2 little fuelvalves between the tanks to solve
that issue. To get a cleaner look I made a new, removeable lower
tank mount that is also hidden between the tanks. It is removeable
so it won't be in my way when pulling the engine out. The welds
are not very pretty (yet) but that will be fixed when I take the
bike apart for paint and have better access. |

I have been working on a new top motormount design, the one
in the pics was the first version and I printed it to check fitment
before getting the real thing CNC machined. In the meantime I
have changed the design a few more times, and it is already being
machined now. |



 

 

The fuelvalve is now exactly centered as I wanted and it looks
like it always belonged there, so I am happy ;-) |
