Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Thursday, August 6, 2015. Still details to sort. waiting still for the carbs, and need some seat foam and a rear brake line. Am also going to run a small cafe race fairing, a 250 BMW rennsport one from Boxer Cafe. Should look pretty cool, I think. The numberplate is all right, but some wind protection might help with top speed a bit. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Will Cal Crutchlow podium on the Duc in 2014. Heres the working concept for my exhaust version .

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Tuesday, November 11, 2014. Exhaust on, and storage. Reinstalled the exhaust, rear caliper and line, and radiator. Threw on the stock wheels (without spacers) and have the bike covered for storage over the long winter. First MPH weekend is just under 6 months away. MAM might be a mere 5 months! Saturday, November 1, 2014. Wheels and swingarm fitted. Got some spacers machined up by my friendly machinist, and the wheels have been fitted! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

ManitobaSuperTwin: October 2014

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Sunday, October 26, 2014. Here are some weight figures. Each wheel was placed in a like box and weighed on a postal scale. so the weights are likley 1-2 lbs high, but its relative. The rear 7R and galespeed wheels were weighed in the same box, likewise for the front. So the figures are less important than the weight difference. Rear wheel, cush drive and alloy sprocket. 214038 lb 18.275 lb 3.1288 lbs. Front wheel, no rotors. Galespeed with spacers, 7R without.

ManitobaSuperTwin: April 2015

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Saturday, April 25, 2015. Greenzilla ready to go. Sunday, April 12, 2015. Carbs from a 2008 Kawasaki ex250 have been pressed into service. Rather than spend over $600 on race carbs, other xt/tt600 riders have used these instead. A ready-made jet kit is available, and will be my starting point. I still might need to monkey around with pilot and main jets, but the needle is supposed to be correct. Friday, April 3, 2015. The muffler has a slight twist when viewed fr...

ManitobaSuperTwin: February 2015

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Saturday, February 28, 2015. Post message if interested. Monday, February 16, 2015. Working on the seat pan. Fabbed the seat pan out of aluminum sheet. A bit overbuilt, but that should be OK. Rear hump is affixed to the pan using the stock mounting points. "Stinger" on the end will be used to help mount both the muffler and the tail lights (if I bother with the latter! Sunday, February 8, 2015. Roughing out the rearsets. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

ManitobaSuperTwin: May 2014

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Wednesday, May 7, 2014. Those of you who have following the blog for awhile knew that a big plan was that I was building up a proper race engine for this season. Not to create a high-hp monster, but something that was tuned up nicely, perhaps getting a few more ponies to keep those damn SVs in sight. The other end - the top of the stuck valve. Nothing broken, but the valve collet retainer must have slipped out of the channel where it is normally retained.

ManitobaSuperTwin: August 2015

http://mbducati.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Sunday, August 30, 2015. Did some fibreglass work on the tail section. Fabbed this piece in order to have somewhere to mount the tail light/ licence plate/ turn signal assembly. If not that, to simply clean up the rear somewhat. a streetbike will no doubt kick up a bit of rain! New exhaust mount location. Its another Hindle titanium muffler, but a quieter one (allegedly) made for a snowmobile. Otherwise identical to a streetbike exhaust. Sunday, August 23, 2015.

Building and racing an EX650R motorcycle. Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Currently waiting for some welding to be finished on the frame, and I will start a reassembly. Should have this thing running not too long from now, if everything goes according to plan. Like it always does! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Will Cal Crutchlow podium on the Duc in 2014.
