Re: Junk Yard Proyects

This weekend I had the chance to make some work on the yamaha fzr, Y sanded and cleaned the fairings, and I began to modify the suspensions:


I have ready the parts to use un the suspension changes:

The rear suspension comes from a WSBK Ducati, so it has the rear arm designed to allow the exhaust tubing, this helps me because I want the exhaust pipes in the tail, like the R1, and they have to go next to the swing arm to the tail.

Well, first thing is to measure both parts, and do the cutting, next, to glue the parts, cut some interior bumps of the die cast suspension to allow the tire, disk and chain sprocket, and, to try how they fit:




I got some styrene tube for the "inverted" fronk fork, the pieces were glued really hard, so I had to cut them and replaced them with the styren:


And the result looks good:



Im getting all styrene tubing I can, over here is hard to find it, I need it soon to make the other bikes frames.
