Chaindrive MOD Update /PICS

[xschop]

Answering questions about my chaindrive set-up. I have diven about 100 miles on it before I had to put her away for the winter.This unit bolts right on and takes a 13T or 14 T sprocket. Here I prefer the 13T as I have a 42T for the back....(PIC is of another member's Drive because I double check fitment before I mail one off)Perfect for my 200 tire's heighth.

Monoshock

I tied the swingarm in with an R1 monoshock and aftermarket 800lb spring (blue) by machining this part and welding to the Triumph's swingarm.

chain alignment

The Chaindrive housing sprocket is adjustable for different swingarms. Pic here shows my front sprocket Dead-On with the Swingarm Chain-guide....

battery

I relocated battery under cowl of the custom fiberglass seat/tail combo here. The electrics are still all to the right side in stock location because I just cut part of the stock battery box away and it bolts in the same frame locations with the monoshock traveling through it to a bracket welded to the frame beneath the tank....

THE OUTCOME.....FATTY

The one piece fiberglass part above ties in a Suzuki SV650 tail-light beautifully and shows off my new meat......

1st Pic

In the first Pic above I moved the stock muffler hanger out the way temporarily to weld a 3/16 inch thick Parallelagram-Shaped piece to the frame before I notched it underneath. I did this to the bike without removing ANYTHING. Weld it to the frame First, Let cool then notch away.....Super Strong....This pic shows another bare frame that I did it to for reference







and here was my original photoshop idea....

Next set of PICS

My next PIC-SET will be with A complete Hayabusa front end installed which will lower the bike and hopefully don't have to grind on the kick-stand.....I can custom make a custom bearing ($75) for the top stem on the xs11 that will allow for many different Suzuki/ Kawasaki front ends to bolt right on that are Beefier and lighter.....JAT for the tweekers out there.

VERY COOL!!! Looks awesome, can't wait for the next set of pics!

Sweet!

Hey Chop,

I've been dieing to see what your new fiberglass tail piece looked like. It's gonna be sweet! You have made sure the Mad Mosquito is not the most custom XS in OKC. Great Job! We'll have to ride together this summer.

See ya,
Scott

Me too, XSchop. But can you do a favour for a moderator? Next time, throw in an extra line between your text and the image tags, and an extra line between each set of image code. This keeps everything lined up much better, and you don't end up with your last word of text separated from the rest. I've fixed everything but the first post in this thread so you can see the difference this makes.

yes sir

spank me...

Looking good chop

your ride

Hey audi, How is the suspension on your set-up. IIRC you had a linked suspension? I can now outrun my buddy on his V-max in the corners, this thing hugs the pavement so tightly that I will be raising the foot pegs some. I still was not used to the fact that I can gun it in the corners without feeling the rear slip from the driveshaft torque. I will be taking it out this weekend it looks like the cold weather is finally bowing out! I Hope....

fiby glass

Hi Bubble,talk about time consuming, but worth it. It will attach with 1 bolt when all is said and done and comes off exposing all electrics/battery. We'll definitly go for a ride soon. I wish I had the time/patience to paint like you. For now my favorite color is FLAT BLACK. No need to polish

Hey Chop, yeah my suspension is linked. It rides alot smoother than the cut springs they way i used to have it. It doesnt corner so well cause I am sitting so low that I drag my kickstand going around the most humble left turns, Turning to the right is much better but I do drag the peg occasionally. It does handle alot better though.
