Rim Profile
Here is the 14" piaggio rim, thisis what i need to acuratly reproduce, the most critical mesurment being the diameter of the 2 flats between the rim walls, to big and the tire wont fit to small and the tire won't center
Here iam documenting the design and build of Feet First motorcycle dont know what that is? find out here I am useing a Kawasaki ER6 engine mainly because of its very compact dimensions , an important consideration for this layout. I am planing to make a trellis style frame in steel along with a Hossack front end, the body work will be in aluminum and a fairing in carbon fiber. This may all change as the design progresses. I am also attempting to cast my own front wheel design, this is also coverd here.
