Re: New product announcement Thanks Walter,
I've got another engine ordered. It should arrive at the end of the week.
I plan on building up a custom bike to have around the shop. It will have lots of machined parts. We had so much fun riding the last one that we did for a customer, that I miss having it around.
The drawings with dimensions for some of the parts will be available for download on my website in PDF format.
I don't plan on selling everything I design...It's just too time consuming to set-up fixtures etc. So for the low volume items I will post the design details for free, and anyone who wants to build thier own can.
I will look at the sprocket when this next engine comes in. I don't think it would be a problem to make a replacement sprocket.
I've also had a request for a belt drive set-up. I'm sure this could be done as well, but it won't be cheap. The off-the-shelf rear pulley + the belt would be around $60.00. Add a custom machined front pulley and the total cost may be prohibitive.
I try to only offer items for sale that have a good value to cost ratio. That's why I started with clutch mechanism. It offers a huge value to the bike enthusiast at a resonable price.
Best Regards,
Jim |
