progress
but slow , stand by for photos
hold this thought Russell
you can use a big hammer a little bit , but you can’t use a little hammer a big bit ———- always have a big hammer @ the ready
there ANOTHER —— “ DAD “ statement
our friend enjoyed his day out with you
cold here down south

ok
you win the joke of the week —— like it
mine wasn’t a book !
your skid s look simple and that’s a plus
my extended frame is 400 mm ( ish ) wide so i need to poke the trainer wheels / skids out from the frame
lots to do before i need to get real serious, but time to think about it

dad joke —— very cruel i’ll get over it i had a passing look @ the Bub out riggers seemed like a very short legged = parallel bar system , air activated I think i have electric linear actuators on my trailer roof , they all come with different spec speed , speed up and down is a factor for me , must...

wow red is always quicker my trainer / stabiliser system i’m leaning towards wheels , and with castors , i can go to scrutineering and steer it upright , mine @ about 4 metres, won’t fit in the “ deluxe “ trailer i took 12 months to make , and the retrieval trailer ( that a few years ago we were all...

out riggers I have been struggling with the concept too 12v acutaors are one idea , air operation is painful ( air supply ) speed of the process is important, didn’t have a close look @ Richard A s and searching doesn’t help a lot wheels or skids ? speed rating of the wheels ? —- some of the down hi...

coffeenobs the bar ends are something i hadn’t heard of , interesting, ! and your early comment about not hitting the other timing pod I was a passenge . I used to wonder how timing equipment was hit / damaged in the past and now i have a better idea ! in “ John Mc Guinness “ book. Built for Speed h...

interesting we get such a short time to test / adjust things it is hard to do changes @ this stage i will remove the swing arm weight remove the “ tabs” on the front guard remove the ram air intakes re consider my front fork travel ( i have limited the travel to about 35mm bump from ride height ) st...

ok ,an update just returned from our speed week , my naked busa scared the living daylights out of me , with a head shake ( poor weight distribution, the main reason ) , this project is “ intended “ to be about a stable in line platform theory is good ! so the CENTRE HUB STEERING has been completed ...

my data shows i did give a surve of throttle during the event i do remember letting the bars go “ light “ ie not fighting it and didn’t apply any rear brake ( something i might bo next time ) though i would be really pleased if i don’t experience that again funny i remember there was a lot of noise ...

Ronnie the bike shook last year when Dave B had a ride , ( 150mph ) i re set / checked head stem bearings , made laser front to rear wheel aligner , ( and now have a “ trammel “ that l use to rear wheel align to the swing arm shaft Dave and i discussed the way we shut down , and seems i shut slower ...

On my first run over the Long Course I had intended to have a run to see what speed the bike could do as it was set up/geared. But after this I decided to pack up and have a rethink: https://youtu.be/wZHu0SIxliM Some will find this pretty funny and I do too NOW after a couple of days off the bike. S...

about to leave for our speed week
i have just picked up the CHS i have had made
some pictures and a serious start to the project when i return
cheers
harky

there are some good pictures there i got the CHS ( centre hub steering) system from the engineering business last week ,so some progress i will not lay down as much as that bike , but steering under my knees is the go , We are nearly packed and ready I am doing the track 2 pre stage , ( Monday AM) B...
