And now for someting
completely different:
A long and low chopper that can actually go around corners!
In previous Cadbikes I used 230 rear tires and offset gearboxes,
this time I will use a 250 tire without offsetting anything,
by adding
an extra sprocketshaft under the gearbox and moving the drivechain
to the other side of the bike.This way the primary belt
will not be
scraping the ground with every left turn and it will leave room for
a bizarre exhaust system that I have dreamed up....... 16
March 2003: Added
1961/1962 style tanklogo's, "slightly"
modified
ofcourse, changed the lower frame tubes so that they are parallell instead
of angled outwards at the back. I added a second cable-operated master
cylinder under/ behind the primary belt to operate the hydraulic clutch.
The clutch cable runs through the frame to the left forward control,
and
transfers the cable movement to the master cylinder using a pivoting
arm
that is a mirrored version of the brake pivot arm that is operated by
the
right forward control. (confused?
check out the pics...)
1 April 2003:

hydraulic clutch mechanism in kickstartcover,
