sprinklerman Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 That's some crazy tie rod angle..wow. Quote
special06shee Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 What he said^^ Better hang on TIGHT! Looks good tho Quote
SOUTHTHIRTY Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 not alot of support on the subframe Quote
Fastassbanshee96 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 So far everything has held up with the steering. Doesn't seem to be to bad. As for the sub frame, no there isn't a lot at all but it's a track only bike. Thinking about putting something in the rear of the subframe to the swingarm but not sure. If it gives me any problems that will be the next route... This is my first build and first time bending/ fabing tube or really anything chassis related. Quote
Fastassbanshee96 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 What kind of angle should the tie rods be? Tried looking at pics of others but couldn't really find a lot of pics. I believe I made the a arms +5 forward and -2 per side. Quote
special06shee Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 This is a +4 out the front frame. The stem mount was moved forward and racked back at the top to keep tie rod angle in check 1 Quote
Fastassbanshee96 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 Ok I get what your saying now. I can probably build a new stem and shorten the mounting plate quite a bit to try to correct some of that. Quote
dozer Posted July 30, 2014 Report Posted July 30, 2014 ridgid fronts racing on a track can get away with some goofy ass angles. Quote
Fastassbanshee96 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Posted July 30, 2014 ridgid fronts racing on a track can get away with some goofy ass angles. Well that kinda makes me feel better. I am by no means a bike builder. Like I said this is my first. I built it on a budget so I did all the work myself. I know that's not always the best route but I tried to do the best I could with what I knew. I probably shouldn't say this but I actually made my own drag axle as well lol. 1 Quote
