We do some more work on the bike.My son milled a pair of triple clamps for the Marzocchi fork.On a old Deckel FP2 milling machine,no CNC,all by hand . Anodized in Titanium coulor. And a picture of the other side of the bike. Still working at some more details.Hope to run at the Spa 4 hours classic race.We have been there with our Bimota KB1 Racer.Legendary Racetrack.

Yes very nice job. Did you keep the same set up of standard clamps on the new one? Ciao Filippo |

Hi Filippo We used Yamaha R6 Clamps and bushed them to the 38 mm Marzocchi tubes.But the Yamaha parts were to wide.We had to use a longer axle and bigger spacers.If the bike got a heavy impact on the front in a fast curve ,the fork was twisted.The brake pistons went a little bit backwards. Not a good feeling at the next hairpin bend. But offset is the same as the Yamaha parts.The clamps are as narrow as possible to fit the brake disc. We hope for a better stability. This weekend we changed the rear brake from 240 mm to 220 mm diameter.Using a selfmade brake anchor plate.A small grimeca caliper is mounted. Together with front discs with less weight we could save around 1,4 kg of weight.

Hi Alex.... You mentioned that the R6 clamps have 41mm offset. How did the Pantah handle with these clamps and the longer shocks? Are you experiencing excessive chain wear on the swing arm? I really like the triple clamps. Your son's machining skills are very impressive. Is he responsible for the other custom pieces on your bike? Regards... Flattop |

Hi The bike haldles very easy,and with good response from the front wheel. Shock length is 37,3 mm.We extended the groove in the rear swingarm to get a wheel base of around 144 cm-145 cm.We use a reinforced clamping for the rear axle to compensate the longer groove. chain wear on the swingarm is not a problem.we use 15 teeth on front sprocket,38-40 rear.the slider is useful,and it lasts relatively long. My son is doing the machinig of the parts we need.His profession is called "Industrial Mechanic,education 3,5 Years in Germany.He is a KTM offroad guy .But he likes the Ducati.
