2019 is the plan —— may be
as we all know any project can take years !
a lot of this is meant to be a simple lay out ———- famous last words —- you can quote me !

This is as the project looks today
the engine / frame will be 50 mm lower , and that will change my sitting angle

pps
means the clutch thrust can " push" against the tube system as well
ok that enough
harky

ps
nice clutch

Ok , my turn
drill and tap each end of the shaft 8 or 10 mm ,bolt and thick "washer " on each end , wont effect shaft strength,
then have tube spacers between all components, everything is kept and contained in position
there
that's my $o.o1 worth

you need traction control -------- and BIG STABILITY WHEELS
be rude to call them trainer wheels
mine will have retracting wheels ------ that's a better term

Ps --------- hold on tight

WE ALL still need trainer wheels maybe we should call them low-speed stability wheels that sounds and looks better if any of these things we are planning ,fall over , it will take a crane to pick them up Richard S weapon looked stable @ low speed , he is a very experienced operator keep the ideas an...
