Currently working on a new subframe. I've always mocked everything up with the old shock but the new Wilbers shock has more travel so the rear tire will hit the subframe. The order in which you take on the project is very important. These kind of mistakes are easily made. My next build will be...
Ah cool! Ik ben ook weer progress aan het maken met mijn project en heb weer wat updates in mijn topic gezet. Ik zit vooral tegen mezelf te praten maar goed:p
I originally bought a set of Honda CRF wheels that I wanted to adapt to the Dominator. After making spacers and changing the bearings I came to the conclusion (Well I already knew about the problem but didn't really consider it a big problem until later on) that I needed a big and expensive...
Today I finished rebuidling the forks.
I started with cleaning the rebound adjusters. A steel wire brush on a dremel makes it easy.
The new seals and bushings.
I wrapped the ends of the inner tube in electrical tape so the new seals won't get damaged when installing them.
All seals...
Some info regarding lowering of CRF forks.
You have to do two things.
Step one. Either borrow a lathe or have someone else machine a new groove in both cartridges. In my case I moved the retaining ring 112mm upwards because I needed to lower my forks 112mm. This moves the spring 112mm up...
Then I will continue :)
Anyways, I'm working on the forks as we speak. I recently bought my third set of forks for this bike. I just couldn't find any that haven't been mangled up with a pipe wrench. With the forks coming of a MX bike it's really hard find nice ones. It's easier to get donor...
So I had a little anodising adventure.
This is the result:
The caliper came out pretty good. Although they have de-anodised the inside (where the pistons seat) but plugged it of before anodising it black. Hopefully that doesn't cause any leakage problems.
The disc brake center didn't come...
I had to use two spacers because the head stem tapers down in the middle. The upper bearing won't have a nice contact patch that way:
I don't have the bike at my house currently. But I think they were both around 8mm thick.
Thanks :)
It's a Aprilia Pegaso 650 Strada Factory. Same engine as the Yam XT660X so it should be bullet proof :)
The Domi is currently looking like this:
In comparison with a real Supermoto:
As I obviously didn't finish the Domi before the summer started. I've bought this.. Gotta have something to rip around on.
Now off to finishing the Domi!
