Re: Newbie ,421 Cheetah
Hi Val, nice "gp" project. It seems that you are in the nautical branch. Are you going to make your own composit parts for the fairings and so on
Re: Newbie ,421 Cheetah
Nice project!
What will you be doing with the bike?

Re: Newbie ,421 Cheetah
Quite nice project.
I like that frame /swingarm combo I remember it being reasonably lightweight. With a Ingitech and dual 40mm carbs, Looks as if you building a dedicated track bike ?
Are you rubber mounting the motor at the lower mounts?
Did you opt for a billet clutch basket,not absolutely necessary but I'd suggest it as an addition. The. 421+ Cheetahs can be harsh on the stock basket.
What's your final sprocket offset, if any ? On my project, I'm not worried about offset too much as it's going to be a track day bike only. I really doubt I'll ever have a problem with it, It's to have uprated bearings+a shaft brace.
With the OWK variant bodywork, it's going to look very good, are you using MotoForzas product, or another vendor?
Anyways, yours looks as beautiful as it's likey to be functional??

Indeed the bike is meant for the track, i have papers but i dont think the bike will be ridden too much on the road.
The sprocket offset 18.6mm the largest i could get.
Motoforzas yes , just hoping for nice quality, should be here next week.
See pics for the lower engine rubbers and the clutch....
