« Last post by slowalex on May 05, 2024, 04:28:50 AM »Seems they have changed the link
new address here: https://horel.chpc.utah.edu/data/station_cameras/bflat_cam/bflat_cam_current.jpg
Thanks, it looks like they moved all the camera data to a new server:
https://horel.chpc.utah.edu/data/station_cameras/bflat_cam/
I'm guessing the official entry point is still this one:

Steering - Suspension - Rear End / Re: Hard Tail Vs. Soft Tail? (and general questions)
« Last post by tallguy on May 05, 2024, 01:35:58 AM »Powered by only 175cc, it's not likely that you'll have to deal with much excessive spinning of your rear tire. I'd keep that one
relatively lightweight and narrow, and use a good amount of pressure in it.
I don't guess that you'd go much faster than about 130 mph (give or take a few mph). The bike's top speed probably would not be much affected by whether you have rear suspension, but for the sake of comfort I'd suggest no rigid rear end. I would favor a
relatively small diameter, lightweight front wheel & tire with little rebound damping in the front suspension, in order to keep
the front tire well-grounded. Good luck.

Build Diaries / Re: Midship Raceabout 1 Seater - Lakester
« Last post by bubruins on May 04, 2024, 07:56:17 PM »I am. I'm not sure which pump I'll use. For the engine cooling water I've purchased a Davies Craig standalone electric unit that modulates water bases on temp. For the intercooler it's tempting to use the same, but $300, could be saved using a boat bilge pump.

« Last post by Rex Schimmer on May 04, 2024, 05:04:28 PM »Just the fact that you are using ice makes a big difference in the cooling capacity. Are you to pump the water though the intercooler? If so make sure that the water flow rate is high, the faster the water runs through the cooler the more heat you will take out.
