    DT100 Hipster Build (mantra: nobody is doing it)

    Hey, Love the bike! I am wondering how two stroke is going to be received by your target audience, tho? Shouldn't it be a hybrid electric at least, if not a plugin electric? I am just imagining the raised eyebrows (or what ever a hipster raises) when the smoke starts to come out of the exhaust...

    '71 CB350 with GSXR front end and other improvements

    Cool, I thought you were using one like this. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11113 No USB, but after it is done you don't need it. Looks like you can use a standard UNO for programing, but they suggest the FTDI Basic board. I didn't catch you are getting the ignition, sorry. I would...

    '71 CB350 with GSXR front end and other improvements

    Ya, heat and vibration are what I was wondering about the most. Moisture could be bad also. Where do you get the micros? How are you programing it? Crazypj was working on a electronic ignition for his cd360 I believe. He was using GM ignition modules and I think they have a pin for tach...

    '71 CB350 with GSXR front end and other improvements

    Hey, I really like the concept! Do you think the Ardiuno can live on the bike? Can the leds be used to indicate the time to shift? Cool project, I am watching.

    CL175 Cafe Build with a Bonneville Pedigree

    Hey, great bike. Do you have any details on the tank? I like the shape. Do you think it is to small for a cb350?

    1983 XV500 Cafe Racer

    Hey Karlloss, Congratulations on getting married and good luck on the build. Because of you I have been looking at v-twin Yamaha's in the area and wondering what if. I have two bikes now and the Mrs. would not stand for a third. Maybe someday (fingers crossed).

    1983 XV500 Cafe Racer

    There are a number of laser/water jet cutting services on the web and free downloadable cad programs. It is a steep leaning curve but, it could be a cool thing if you where so inclined. The frame in tubing will defiantly be quite a challenge and there are no computers involved. The fact that...

    1983 XV500 Cafe Racer

    Since you really want to make a frame for you bike, I was thinking you could make it out of laser/water jet cut sheet metal. The original was made of sheet and if you are any good with cad you could make it self jigging and have the ability to hold it all together while it is being welded. Just...

    1983 XV500 Cafe Racer

    Just looking at the pictures, I think it looks perfect with the GSXR forks. I know nothing of geometry, trail and suspension, so don't mind me. Yes , I see that you loose some ground clearance and that is maybe not good. Maybe a little in this case will be ok. Maybe you can make up a little in...

    Savage Project: Steel Clover (I'm Back!!!!)

    Hooking up an LED is pretty easy and putting it in resin doesn't sound too hard. I messed around with LEDs some and may be able give you a few tips. A problem with casing LEDs in resin maybe, as the resin expands and contracts the connections to the LEDs may crack. Keeping the connections...

    Congratulations on the lady, house and Triumph in that order ;). I am happy to see you back. I have been a fan since you started and am anxious to see how the rest of this goes. P.S. I know this is your bike build but a quick flash of the Triumph would be cool.

    Savage Project: Steel Clover (I'm Back!!!!)

    Re: Savage Project: Steel Clover WOW! totally cool. I wonder if you could tell me what gauge material your using and maybe a quick picture of your tools. I have puttered about shaping metal but am apprehensive about diving in like I need to. You have inspired me to push a little harder. Thank you.

    a little new tech old tech

    This is a very cool project. I was wondering if you would like to share some more details of the parts you are using? I'm most curious about the GPS module. The servo is a cool idea for a output device. I always think LED's or LCD's. How does the speed of the servo keep up to the acceleration of...
