Played around with the front motor mount and decided to use this billet setup. Reworked the clamp to 1/4 studs with lock nuts, milled the clamp for a tighter fit. The motor feels real solid, I have used all the original mounting points which helps.
Started the process of gussets to support the new seat tube/ motor mount. This area will get some good gussets since this is part of the jackshaft area.
Got a good idea for wheels just need to find them. Anyone have a pair of 26 inch felt rims. Black or Aluminum? Red would do.

Waiting for the jackshaft gear to complete the setup. Mocked up the pipe I am using and will need to slice and re- weld for the fit I am looking for. Tight to the frame and motor would look clean. Ordered a new rear disk hub to see if I can make it work... 135mm spacing is wide. We shall see...

Lots of random chit going on with the bike, drilled so many holes in that sprocket that I am cross eyed now. That was a chore. Played around with chambers and don't like what I got. Got a rear disk hub and played around with a new design on a coaster hub. Changed back to a bike seat, like the look. Got lots of ideas, but they change often.

I like the rear drop outs.....besides lengthening and widening the rear end, it also lowers the frame just a tad. Coming right along Jeff, looks great!

I've got a pair of the narrower ones that came with my green felt you can have if you want......jus let me know. They are satin aluminum silver finish.

Yeah, I have a couple of those 28 tooth sprockets I was thinking of replacing the aluminum disposables with.....i think they're just under 2lbs. It needs a lot of holes punched in it for all practical purposes but should last a long time.

Replacing the aluminum primary sprockets is gettin kind of expensive lately :D

Still working on a chamber setup and little odds and ends. Got a killer set of felt polished wheels from Venice Motor Bikes whack will have Michelin Pilot tires on them.
