Later it was decided to make a cutout in the frame and weld in a halfpipe to make room for the hose, then make some strengthening on the rails. We also had to modify the frame at the back left rail to make more room for the carb. Everything was done to make everything as short as possible. The intak...

Another problem area was the exhaust side. I was both lucky and unlucky here. As the cylinder is further forward i didn't know if it was possible to retain the stock front frame rail, but the cylinder slipped in with minor work. What i had to do was to slightly polish the weld in the middle of the r...

then the most complicated part: All measuring and testing to solve the clearance problems with this big cylinder in a stock frame. Remember that the cylinders are made for bores over 100mm so the are big! Not only the casting in the bore area, but also the length of the intake side plus that the exh...

So, to the bottom end then; Here i used a Hot rods crank. I knew this COULD be a bit of a gamble, but as they re updated not long ago i decided to try it. Stock bearings are used everywhere. I went for a Hinson clutch basket with a stock inner hub and pressure plate together with barnett carbon disc...

Thanks! I finally got to try it a little on the ice this Sunday. The weather has been bad with first snow, then rain, but we took a chance and my friends plowed a short track, which suited me for a first test on ice and check some jetting and other stuff. The bike is great! It starts easy, not harde...

The bike is now ready for some icetrack testing. I worked all evening yesterday to get it done Before the weekend. I'ts not sure that the ice is good enough, but it's best to be ready if the track is ok. It will be a test day. https://bannedcr500riders.com/images/auto/f604328926b2985377c4919469f55a8...

So, finally i have taken some short bursts with the bike. First a short slow ride to check that clutch and gearbox was working properly, and today i went out and started to give it som more throttle. I still haven't used much above half throttle because it was very slippery outside. We have -3C here...

Today i have done the final fitment in the frame to check that everything fits after all the mods we have done. Finally it seems like everything fits! This hasn't been easy, to get a lectron 48 into the stock frame. Finally it works, even with the thicker V-force3 reedcage. I haven't decided which o...

Yesterday we continued with the frame mods. We decided to raise the radiators about 7mm, and also move them forward about 10mm at the lower mounting point, which will be 5mm at the middle mounting point. This is done because we have made a cutout in the frame where the radiator hose goes beween the ...
