Hi Rex,
Good to hear that, the idea right now is to lube the gears and the output shaft bearings with a wet sump. I have no idea but it feels like the 5000rpm output gear will be able to keep the oil stuck to it all the way around to the pinion gear, please correct me if I am wrong though.
If the mist oiler turns out well I might convert the entire gearbox to mist lubrication but for now I will have to cut some corners to have it ready for a road test this summer.
Yesterday the M12x1.0 die I ordered a couple of weeks ago arrived so I could finish lowering the fork legs.
I shortened them 6cm which feels about right, this particular fork needs to have the inner damper tube cut and rethreaded when the Hayabusa forks and others only needs to have the spring spacers replaced.
One leg done, one to go.
I took the frame outside a while ago to get some decent pictures of it, looks a bit high now without the underhung oil and kerosine tanks.
I fitted the gas producer just for the fun of it, I can almost hear it moan "polish me, polish meeeeeeeee......"
I can´t say that the frame is very wide, the widest part of the bike while riding will probably be my smile.
Cheers!
