Continuing the 'waking the dead theme'
captaindonutbikes:
run the electrics to the rear by extending part of the loom and running a smaller R1 battery. all fits in the hump nicely. had to give the rectifier a cooling plate (holes drilled underneath) but it stays cool enough.
rest is tucked up inside the front light as standard. loom has been neatly hidden under the seat pan.
Rozabikes Tim:
Nicely thought out bike, very tidy. Top marks!!
lordwhimsey:
Did it pass the MOT?
captaindonutbikes:
had no time or money to get it done. have put a small baffle in the straight through as she was too loud for road use ;D
she is probably not going to see any serious road use until the spring because she is too shiney and nice!
running sweet tho if not a tad rich.
hows your cafe coming along ?
any pictures ?
lordwhimsey:
Since I last posted I re-built the top end, discovered the cam chain tensioner was in the wrong place, re-built it again then cracked the rocker cover and re-built it again! I think it's fine now...
Apart from that I've done very little on the bike, instead I've been devoting my time to constructing my new bike shed/Man Castle which should speed the building process up (over winter at least).
Your bike's looking good, have you had a sneaky ride on it yet? ;)
