Project started
October 2023,
| Before cutting the frame we are building a jig, using the welding
table as part of it. This week we put the new neck in the neck-jig
and continued fixating the (few) parts of the old frame that we
are keeping. |
| The bike will remain a swingarm so we fixed the swingarrm castings
to the jig. The seatpost and motormount castings are also staying,
but the transition from the seatpost to the lower frametubes will
be changed completely. |
| Aad started cutting the unneeded bits off. The lower frametubes
frrom the seatpost forward had already been replaced by a previous
owner with a slightly smaller than stock diameter tube, so these
are going to be replaced also. |
| Just to make sure nothing important moves we fixated
front and rear motormounts to each other as well as to the jig.
Next week we remove the last bits we don't need and clean the
bits that we do need, then start building up the new frame! |
