Now this is what you call building a bike! And pressing out your own swingarm! Another humbling experience. MikeV |

Cheers dude, you know what... I have no idea what filler rod it is we use. My Dad does all the brazing but I do know the rod is 3mm. It is a grade he normally uses for T45 though, and what he has always used on the steel frames we do...so its always worked with no failures. Flux is Siflux I know that much. I do all the machining really, and a bit of alloy welding. We didnt want to Tig the steel as we have seen failures before on others, so we just stick to what we know. TT1-F1 wrote: Looking good! We allready met on FB didn't we? Jarno Jarno, yes I think we did mate !! This forum will probably appreciate the build a little more..at least most people will know what an TT F1 is !! 618F1 wrote: Now this is what you call building a bike!

Its only metal at the end of the day and we do enjoy making the bikes... but...thing is, we have an '09 R6 racebike in the workshop as one of our friends has bent a valve so we need to fix it for him...I had a sit on it and it took me back to my Supersport days...think after this season its back on 600's for me !! Also, has anyone got any good contacts for a fairing and seat in the UK..I have no idea where to go for them. We have got a smashed top fairing, so we was going to repair and mate it to a bellypan with some re-work..but the seat??? |

I'll let you know where to get a decent seat unit from if you build me a swingarm like that baby! Excellent work fella, wish I had an ounce of the skill that I keep seeing here on this forum! |

Now that project looks really impressive, (my type of project ). So cool to press your own swing arm. Please keep sending the photographs, I really do want to follow this one. Pat. |
