More bodges

 I needed to make some sort of panel to cover the electrics under the seat and I thought I would use the steel plate a the back of our old kitchen stove. I had forgotten just how difficult it is to cut with the shears but I managed some rough shapes and folded the edges over to get rid of any sharp edges. The results are quite horrible but will have to do for now.

Why won't axle rod go through wheel?

 The say that if you put questions in your website text then it is more likely to be found by search engine. Hence the title to this post. This is whet I searched for but although I found many people with the same problem I found no answer. I used about 8 hours trying but the rod just wouldn't go through. I used a slightly smaller rod as a guide but still no joy. Eventually I realised that the rod would not pass through the small spacer. Eureka, I had swapped the spacer with the washer. The rod passes through the space but only the threaded part goes through the washer. Satisfied at slving the problem but frustrated that it took so long. I don't want to look at that axle so I'm posting a photo of the bike with newly painted tank. Nowhere near this stage yet but I like looking at it.

 I am waiting for parts so that I can finish the bike. It won't be road legal but it should run and should look a lot faster than it is. The actual bits I am missing are the instruments and head light.. Once that end is done, I can get on with the rear end and sort out the exhaust. My current thought is to buy a simple silencer and some curved pipes from Biltema and put together my own exhaust, there aren't so many curves. I am going to take measurements from the photo using the programme GeoGebra.
