ok gents pull up a cahir and bear with me
Dymags not going in, but thats left me with a major problem of a wheel. so, im gona make a storm wheel fit for peace of mind, but at the other end i had to cut the swingarm out over a year ago to be able to use the swingarm i have in atm so that problem two.i had to remove its as the dymag broke its carrier and a storm wheel doesnt fit the spondon arm, more about that later lol
so at the sharp end i cant get the bearings to fit the engine/frame/engine mount so heres what i removed
after much head scratching and machining and more head scratching iv made storm bearings fit the spondon arm using a mix of bearings/ spacers machined to size,jesus that stuff is tough to get through but, thats the sharp end sorted
easy bit over now the wheel and.
the storm wheel runs a 20mm axle, the spondons a massive 28 and the axle is so much longer than a storm aswell. so iv machined down the spondon chain blocks and recessed them for a snug fit. the storm wheel wont take 28mm bearings without machining the hub to dangerous levels that im not happy with.
heres one side before the boss go removed
so got that bit sorted but still several problems. the spindle length and dia, then the lightbulb moment, the storms engine/swingarm is the same dia as the wheel that im gona use, so thats what im gona use. a little trim on the outer blocks and bingo iv got length i need
so. now i have the engine end sorted. i have the axle width sorted that only leaves me with getting the spindle to fit the newly machined blocks, get the wheel centred, get a disc that fits and line up silly things sprocket/carrier/disc. just silly things
oh, and work out the rear caliper bleed nipple thats snapped or change the caliper for something else and space it.
im taking my time and thinking this through cause its gona be my ass on the bike and stuff this idea of its not period or shouldnt be there, i dont wana end upside down in a ditch just to use the period parts lol
to be continued !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
