Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This is a great looking project Z1015, Just a querry about

Was going 530 with 18 - 35

Ye Gods !! are you going for the land speed record this would work out at a final reduction ratio of 1.94, yikes! I have 17/38 which pulls 140mph @ 10000rpm, with an 18 tooth i would guess imho at something like a 42 tooth sprocket, keep the pictures comming, Best Regards, Steve.

Yes, we had this conversation last week when i rang about ordering the offset 630 sprocket. On my z1r i'm running 17 - 33 630 pitch with 17"s . It pulls like a train from low revs and tops out at about 165+ @ 11500rpm . Have tried 15-33, 15 -36 and 17-36 but went like a motocrosser and just wheelspun everywhere. Got a std z1r box in it i'm sure ? but was built from a pile of ex race bits ?. Am now going 19-40 with the 530) You are right about the 1.941-1 ratio but that compensates for the reduced dia of the 17" rims. Been running this like this for 7 years now and don't get out accelerated by bandit 12's and the like which really upsets them.

Corking!
Exhaust looks much better than the harris

Had a manky CX500 trike in recently for a bit of work and a service. Had a pair of these awful ducati cans grafted on and mounted to the footrest rubbers with wood screws HO HO! Kept burning his feet.

Built him a stainless 2-1 with gixer 1000 can and ended up tripping over the remains for the past week. Had nothing to do this weekend and was going to bin the cans but had a bit of a brainwave and did this. >>-->
Dismantled the best looking can and chucked the mechanical baffle

[zed1015]

Stuck the ally sleeve in the lathe and skimmed off the mouldy anodising and ducati logos.

Then extracted the perforated baffle tube from an old oval can .

Then after cutting down the sleeve i modded the salvaged baffle and tidied up the stainless ducati end caps and ended up with these.

And here is the result >>>



Not turned out too bad ? Just got to finish the finer details,polish and pack it and maybe play with the angle before i make the hanger.

Anuvver case of "Mr Fixxit" strikes again

Very smart hope it sounds as good as it looks

[zed1015]

As long as it doesn't sound like a ducati ........

Another inspiring piece of work! Makes me wonder though, have you actually spent any money on this, or is it all hand made

[chrisu]

agree - great engineering skills..................

Well. I try not to. But against my natural instincts i did actually buy the down pipes and that APE low profile filter cover so i just had to redeem myself with the end can didn't i .

I too have gone for a 530 conversion on the Saxon Turbo. I run 18/38 which gives me about 175mph @ 10,000rpm. Personally I feel it's just right for a motor with more than standard horsepower.

This gets better and better and puts off-the shelf bolt-on bits restores to shame.

I love that tailpiece, Where Can I get one? (obviously off-the shelf as I am not clever enougth to make one. )

Cheers
