You don't need stinking indicators, just tap your toe coming upto the junction.


Great project by the way.... :wave:

Been following this and love how its coming together. Can't wait to see you using it. As for brakes why ? you want it to go not stop.

Now you can start, see, and top up the tank. Headlamp and tank really dress it up! Looks the part.  :thumbup: :clap:

@ OKTomT

Just joined this forum because of my intense interest with this engine build.  I have so many questions, and I want to scratch-build a full-size, vintage bike engine like the one pictured in this construction article.

While your photo-build is wonderfully informative, of course few dimensions are noted concerning the engine, like con-rod lengths, gear specs. etc.  Is this an engine that you designed or can this be an engine from some book on how to build a vintage bike like Hasluck's "Motor Cycle Building-1906"?  I really need some more critical dimensions to duplicate the engine...I'm not as good as you are and need a detailed road map to Engineland.


Following this build with very great interest, and greater anticipation.  Thanks for sharing.


Frank


EDIT:   Sorry...Just re-read the opening postings and realized that the bike and engine designs are taken from the Hasluck's book.  So excited about finding this thread that I skipped over the important details of the engine-build.  Now to hunt down the book.  Anyone know who retails the book?  Lindsay's gone.
