Por favor me corrija sobre qualquer erro na escrita. Obrigado!





Mounting the levers. Spring + shaft + pin.







To conclude, I thought the best way was to show how the idea of the hoods would be a video. Click on the link to view YouTube.
Hope you enjoy.

my god! this is just the beginning, I can not imagine the future.
is a great detail to include a video.

Just curious--what made you want to make the brake levers functional? Just because you could? It's certainly beautiful, just wondering why you would.

I'm building the '08 bike right now (out of the '05 kit) but it's brakes don't work, I'm afraid!

Great job!

Betobrazil - any new updates for this awesome detailed build? - John

[BetoBrazil]

Hello friends of AF!
I'm sorry those who did not answer these last time because I needed to take a break with the assembly and am now returning.

Continuing with the line that I chose for this assembly, trying to improve the most original pieces of kit, follow this step with the rear suspension.

The original pieces of kit


replacing the axis of plastic for a steel


This piece of kit has closed, but in fact it is poured


Sensor rod and aluminum air cylinder Top Studio, Spring Fork Front yellow kit replaces the original black and rim adjustment made ​​in Scratch


Here the base has leaked, the air cylinder removed, the upper support adapted to the sensor which was separated to the input of adjustment ring


All parts before the final assembly


Final score, missing only the decals cylinder









Hiroboy, John18d, auw12 and miguel s, thanks for the comments.

racer93,
Make the brake levers functional was a challenge for me, I've been trying to surpass the quality and detail of my mounts with each new bike and I came here this idea ... but I confess I do not want to do again because of too much work!

Hope you enjoy.
More updates soon with the engine assembly.

Beto - it all looks pretty good, but I believe the "adjuster ring" that you made belongs under the end of the spring not at the end of the shock body? - the adjuster is used to apply "preload" to the spring to set the static sag on the shock and the ride height - at least that is how the Ohlins racing shock worked on my superbike when I was racing here in the USA AMA superbike championship. Take a look at your reference pictures again - I may be wrong but I've not seen a shock with the adjuster ring at the location you have it - John

[BetoBrazil]

John, thanks for your comment!
According to my references seem to me that is correct because the "adjuster ring" should stimulate the whole body of the cylinder until the beginning of spring.
Unfortunately I do not know this system in practice and only referenciei me the photos.



Anyway thank you and another friend, or if you can enlighten us better be valid.

Beto

[John18d]

Beto - thanks for the picture - according to that picture your assembly is correct. What bike is that reference picture from. If the "valving body" can slide up and down on the shock as it looks in the picture then it does the same thing - applying "pre-load" on the spring to set the static sag and ride height. That is the first time I have seen an Ohlins shock of that design - anyhow your scratch build suspension appears correct - thank you for letting me know and posting the picture - your build is very interesting - you are doing excellent work - John

[BetoBrazil]

John, seeking more information on the subject, I found a book comparing the "Pit Walk Photo Collection 6 - MotoGP Racer's Archive 2005". In this way it becomes clear that the change in the rear shock occurred after 2005. See photo and text 44, 45:



Thanks for the compliments

Beto - that's a very good observation - which Bike is that on? Yamaha? Honda? not sure which - I have all the "pitwalk" books and I will take a better look at them - It is an interesting way to make the shock have pre-load adjustment. I think it is because the adjuster ring would be difficult to reach to make adjustments if it was next to the spring. Very innovative of Ohlins. When I was racing superbikes here in the late 90's we used to have several different shocks and we would replace the entire unit to make valving adjustments and also for spring changes - we only used the same shock if it was a matter of fine adjustments "clicks on the adjuster knobs like "high and low speed rebound" or "high and low speed compression". Very interesting Beto - good attention to detail as usual for you - which guitar strings did you use for the springs in the clutch and brake levers? I really like all you attention to detail - John
