Anachronism: the heap formerly known as Bitch!!

Eurospares is probably the single best and more unsung collection of pertinent information for guys like us. Yeah, there's places with more specific info about specific areas but nothing I've come across has the breadth.

As for geometry, I've got tons of info and I *DO* have plans for a couple frames/chassis packages that are completely one off....but if(when) I do this one I'll be stealing the basic layout and geometry from a 955i. Seems like a no brainer since i just nabbed a 'scratch and dent '04 for another guy's project. The chassis/suspension is good so I'll try and rack this one up and steal the numbers i need. I'm keeping the forks and rear suspension from it so they may get used.

someday....heh

Wow the mechanics of the brake side is really impressive. Nice work. Are you going to leave the mounting plate one piece like that or do some trick cut out design?
 
Dang Swagger! those are nice... I would love a pair for the XJ muscle bike project I got if I can ever get it under way. They look like they are straight off a airplane, very cool!
 
Thanks very much guys! This is probably the last "progress" on anything of my own for a while.
I need to spend some serious time getting parts made to sell, but this did help in that a bit.

The mounting plates are barely shaped. I'm planning to cut out the centers at minimum but I may do something more elaborate, we'll have to see how motivated I am when I get to this again.....
 
lee whats going on with the project. i have to get that manifold out to you. i just haven't been at the office for work since they have me out on the road. those shocks are amazing though and being one offs its always good to have contacts
 
Hey Chris,
No updates at this point in time though the frame is still on a stand, I'm a little limited for space and between Miss Kitty's surgery and HOMAGE my time is pretty much eaten up.

I have just about gotten all my duck in a row to get the CNC shop going on some first run stuff that Herm and Jason will have on Dime City's site. It's been a far slower road than I'd thought, but life DOES tend to get in the way now and again. Once I have a little momentum going it'll be easier to divert resources to my now 5 personal bike projects.

No worries on the manifold mate, just lemme know when and I'll get'm cut for you. I have material set aside so whenever that old one gets here I can burn'm out. Thanks mate!
 
yeah life does get in the way but its all good in the hood hahahaha i got that part out today you should see it soon.

thanks again so much
 
hey swag, just sayin hey, havent seen ya ina minute, so i thought id say whats up and hope all is goin well for you.
 
Thanks guys, a bit frantic here but thus far we're surviving.
Tracy's recovery isn't' going as well as we though and I spent the last 50 hours short a couple breaks in the emergency room and then the regular hospital.....ugh. I think we got her over the hump though so it should calm down now. whew....
 
Thats scary brother. Glad to hear shes doing ok now though. If you need anything, you have my number.
 
Mike, you're a prince mate...thanks!

Mr.Longhorn...your linkage arm is done. I can't remember if you gave me your address or not though, can you PM that to me?

Thank you Gentlemen, very much.
