Fifty shades of Jade

Chain

Most street bikes run a 520 size Chain and performance drag bike 530.


When you look at top fuel bike there running huge 630 size chain.

To save any tears later 630 big boy chain it is and we machined sprockets to match.

Are you going to replicate the old Jade Warrior paint-job ? I appreciate bike is triggers broom at this point but does the name stay ?

She is Alive !!!




I got an air leak and she is revving straight up to 4800 rpm:?

But she starts up and runs

That’s a big achievement & big steps going in the right direction

Have you weighed the rear wheel Assy, just curious on weight

[autofetish]

18kg


I’m not trying to make it light I want it heavy

No i understand & I read that earlier about wanting weight over the rear. Was just curious on what it weighed, no other reason.

Plus there’s only so many times you can say, that’s nice

Yes, I think we all ran out of superlatives for this thread a long time ago....

Nah I can easily move weight over the rear like tanks fuel etc

but what we are doing is the opposite of what everyone else is doing.

We are increasing wheel wight to increase gyroscopic mass for greater stability.

Wheel Nut locks


Torque Wheel nut then installs a bolt through plate to act as a secondary locking mechanism.



Just need to find a socket to fit now

Nope Jade Warrior was Angus McPhail legacy this bike is ours


But we need a name and I can't think of one. Any suggestions

[morgan]

I thought that was the case but wasn’t sure if an had changed.
Need to re-awaken that part of the thread I think. Name the beast...
