Haven't gotten much done this week- it's been snowing like this all week:



That was early last Sunday, it's been snowing like that pretty much all week. trying to keep my driveway clear has been a total pain. Pretty much the only thing I accomplished was finishing the linkage for the shifter;



going to do the finish welding and clean it up a bit, but it should work good.

Bandsaw comes in on Tues. and I'll get right on mounting the air cylinders properly. Once I get them mounted I can plumb them and hopefully mount all the other items. that way I can test the system and see how well it's going to work. I'm excited about getting to that point!

from looking at this i dont see how that would work. the mount on the rear tire is going to trace out a circular arc not a strait path so when you go to pump it up it is going to bend the pistons

make the plate pivot on a centerline with the pistons, alongwith those tubes around the plates. thread the bolts from outside the frame rails, nuts welded to the plate. problem solved, just button heads to give it a little cleaner look.

Sorry, forgot to mention that part. I've scrapped the mid-mount because of the aforementioned problem.

It's ok to ride your bike on a table and make motorcycle noises right?

And a parting *** end shot....

Hard work today.....

Got in my Harbor Freight bandsaw so I could cut the bracketry for my new cylinder mounts. I'm not sure why people are so down on these, the thing worked like a champ for me.

Looks easy, but that was about 7hrs of work today.

I'm really happy with it, much better than before. Also, now i can focus on getting the rest of the air system in place.

Thanks for looking
