Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
I didn't take pictures of the WIP for the rims but I can show you the CAD plans. There are three parts: the rim is one piece, then separate parts for the left side hub and right side hub. All three parts are glued together with epoxy.

Other ideas I've found is to use a folded piece of masking tape with small strips of styrene as teeth and then paint the whole shabang black. Tedious work to get those strips placed in a strict pattern though... /Joel |

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
Hi Joel,
No, I haven't got the belts yet. There was an issue with the post and they had to send them again, internationally. So it will take some time until they arrive. Will post on this thread once I get them. |

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
Hi all,
I received the belts and they fit perfectly with the kit parts. The belts are 3 mm wide with 1 mm pitch. Some photos to give you an idea how it looks. |

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
Perfect, then I'll order some too. Just have to meassure the length accurately. Or perhaps order open ended belts and glue them in place.
How much did they charge you for postage? Last edited by joelwideqvist; 01-17-2015 at 01:23 PM. Reason: Spelling |

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
It is unlikely that you will find the right length but the belt can be glued with super glue. Shipping was $10.

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
Great, did you order some for the primary as well? In case you did, what width did you choose?

Re: Not another Yamaha Road Star
Hi all,
Today, I got my motivation back and did some more work on the bike. I have managed to machine the primary drive pulley. It was not necessary but I wanted to do it anyway. I had to grind a special grooving lathe tool for this job, but since I am planning to do more custom bikes in the future, I will use it more than once. Unlike the kit part, which is supposed to be painted and glued, the machined part will be secured with a micro bolt and nut. So next job is to machine a 2 mm bolt with nut. Some photos of the pulley and fit: Thanks for watching |
