I went back and forth a lot on the radiator mount design for the 570. The bike is a blend between modern and vintage so coming to a design that fit the rest of the aesthetic was difficult. As much as I wanted to do some 80's inspired fiberglass fairing work, in the end it just made the front end look too bulky. The radiator is a big piece as it is so the mount and guard had to be as light and minimal as possible while still offering protection.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
I quickly mocked up all the mounting points and surrounding parts in CAD to get a better idea of the design in 3D before going forward. Here's what I came up with digitally.</blockquote>

I went through a decent amount of bends before getting to the point above where everything lined up. Downside was it was a lot of sections that would need to be welded up and filed smooth. After the 3rd attempt I knew the tolerance of the bender well enough to do it all out of one main piece and a small connecting piece. Two welds, much easier than 4.</blockquote>

Finally got the Chicago shop all packed up and moved to Portland. The new space is 700 sqft with a lot of potential but needed some work to get there. A wall was dividing the 3 bays 2:1. I knocked the center wall down to open it up and let the light in from the bank of windows in the single stall. We then drywalled the ceiling in, ran more electrical lines and white washed everything. </blockquote>

We're going to work at adding more decor and a hangout space in the future but for now it's in do-shit mode. The One Moto Show is in 8 days and this Husqy needs to git done.</blockquote>

<div style="text-align: left;">
A quick how-to on removing and replacing your worn clutch basket. Baskets will usually get grooves worn into them over time from the plate tabs and eventually restrict movement, causing the clutch to drag. The Husqvarna was doing just that so a replacement basket was purchased. </div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Many baskets are riveted to the steel ring gear behind them. Here's how to remove the basket without damaging the gear.</div>

Use a center punch to mark the center of each rivet then drill through with a small bit (1-2mm). Use some cutting paste to save your bits from all the drilling you're about to do. I use "Coolcut" from Walter.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
This clutch has a sleeve bearing. Make sure not to touch the inner bearing surface. It'll likely have metal shavings on it and you don't want to scratch it. I put my gear under running water and then blew it out with compressed air after separating the 2. If yours has a ballbearing tape it off before drilling. </blockquote>

Step up to a 4-5mm bit and drill a slightly larger hole. Make sure your bit is narrower than the holes in the gear so you don't bore out the steel. (check out the grooves in the basket and the broken prong.)</blockquote>

Drill down until you start hitting the aluminum of the basket. You can feel the different between the steel rivet and aluminum basket. What you need to do is drill away the rivet's head. Eating into the basket a bit is fine since it's trash. </blockquote>

<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Many aftermarket clutch baskets are reattached with bolts instead of rivets. I scored this lightweight Surflex billet clutch basket off eBay. (One of the few company's that makes one for the TE) It came with steel rivets instead of bolts. To reapply the rivets you'll need a rivet hammer (pneumatic) and bucking bar. Here's a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTmuFxEN1Mk" target="_blank">video on how to use a rivet hammer.</a> Otherwise you'll need to find a shop that has one. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
I happened to have everything from a previous project with Snap-on. The steel rivets require a higher PSI to squash. I had my gun setup at 120psi in order to get them to deform enough (1.5x the size of it's start diameter). Use several small c-clamps to hold the 2 pieces together while riveting so there's no play in the fitment. Sorry, I installed the new basket on a different day and forgot to take photos.</blockquote>

This is the "Desert Sled" concept I worked on with photog <a href="http://www.sgtoepfer.com/" target="_blank">Scott Toepfer</a> last year, based on the Scrambler #Sixty2 platform. The goal was to highlight the baby Scrambler's potential as a low priced hoon machine; the Miata of motorcycles. We concentrated on off-road capability and trimming the fat while retaining a design aesthetic Italy would approve of. ...anyone want one?</blockquote>

<a href="http://www.the47.com/" target="_blank">Ronin Motorworks</a>, creators of the "47 Ronin" concept bikes, announced at the end of September that their story had reached it's end. The brainchild of a few Magpul engineers began back in 2009 after Harley shed itself of Buell and was offering up the rest of it's inventory. The team set out to design a custom platform built off Buell's 1125R. Production of the 47 bikes, each appointed a Samurai name from the Japanese folklore, has seemingly ceased. According to the website 19 of the 47 bikes are still available, ranging from $38,000 - $75,000. <span style="text-align: center;"> </span></div>

Back in February 2015 I had the chance to tour their shop in Denver. Shane, one of the designers, lead me around their lofted design studio and through the production floor where the bikes were being worked on. There were original sketches on the wall, prototype samples on the tables and clay models from their R&D days. I took a lot of photos with the intention of getting it all up on the blog and somehow it fell to the wayside. So, here's that photo set and what I can remember from that day. Although it's sad to hear the doors are closing, it was a storybook tale from the beginning and it's fulfilling to know they've completed their journey.</div>

A prototype clay model of the front end is leaning against the wall in the design studio. These type of models are built to view the design in the real world before giving the manufacturing "go-ahead." It's amazing how different a design can look when you're able to see it in front of you instead of on a screen. Clay is used because it allows both additive and subtraction modifications to be easily made. After the model is finessed the clay is 3D scanned and CAD geometry is built around the data points. That CAD is what get's sent to the manufacturer.</blockquote>

This, is the crown jewel of accessories. A CNC cut bamboo toolkit, each with, you guessed, it's name and number carved into it. The coin seen here in the clasp is a magnet that interacts with a sprung loaded lock cylinder. To open the box you must remove the coin, flip it over and reinsert it. The magnet's reverse polarity overcomes the sprung lock cylinder and pushes it into the open position. Yea....holy shit.</blockquote>

Inside you'll find a pair of RFID keyfobs and a case hardened multitool. Inlaid within is a set of bits that fit into the chuck at the tool's base. Honestly this would probably be on my mantle with gallery lighting and lasers while a roll-up of Craftsman wrenches is stuffed under the seat.</blockquote>

Bill Webb and the team at Huge Moto (the passion project of <a href="http://www.huge-design.com/" target="_blank">Huge Design</a>, SF) have been working on an evolution of their original <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/huge-moto-custom-motorcycle-kit#/" target="_blank">Honda CBR street fighter kit</a>. Part by part the concept was formed around Honda's CBR1000 motor. In the design world this stage would be considered the "design release"; the point at which engineering is on-boarded to work through the structure and functionality of the concept. It's the concept car stage, used to generate interest in pursuing production. Huge is doing just that, putting their concept out there in search for a partner to help with back-end development. The frame and single sided swingarm are shown in carbon fiber, a process that's still being formulated by even the big sticker Moto GP teams. In that sense some concessions may need to be made but Bill describes the concept as being "80 percent real." </div>

<blockquote>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If the motorcycle community were a high school, which it sometimes feels like, the ATWYLD girls would be the homecoming queens that didn't ask to be nominated. You knowww, the girls you're kinda jealous of but want to be besties with. The only shit you can talk is, "are they actually that nice?" The answer is a deafening yes.</div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In addition to big smiles, they're also genuinely enthusiastic about their brand and just want to share it with other women. My visit to the <a href="https://atwyld.com/" target="_blank">ATWYLD</a> booth at the Dreamroll was complete with free patches and several Alltime Moto Jacket fittings. Those sleeves felt like cool butter whipped by angels against my skin. I kept coming back for more. Everything about the brand is thoughtful because they're actually riders with legit experience in art and fashion design. The gear implements stretch, Kevlar, and padding with consideration for women's bodacious bods. The S, M, and L jacket all fit me depending on how I'd want to wear it and the riding jeans stretch to hug those lady curves. But first, my heart eyes are set on that Convoy Armored Shirt to save my bones while I learn how to dirt bike.<span style="text-align: center;"> </span></div>

<blockquote>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In summary, class, if you're new to the women's moto campouts and aren't the type to ditch class or smoke in the bathroom - go find the ATWYLD booth.</div>

As a pre-requisite for our move out to Portland in November we decided to load up the bikes and explore the Pacific North West with some good friends. The 4 of us who came from Milwaukee trailered the bikes to Missoula, MT where we shed the truck. Out west we met up with Erik from Cincinnati, and Seattleites Mike and Jenny of <a href="http://packanimal.co/" target="_blank">Pack Animal</a>. Our goal was to ride the PNW heavy hitters Rainier, Hood, and St. Helens with the girls spending the weekend at the <a href="http://www.dreamroll.com/" target="_blank">Dreamroll</a> on Mt. Adams. We were on the bikes for 6 days, bathing in glacial rivers, camping in furry forests, getting engaged, getting flat tires, low siding and hot springing. I'll let Jenny's lens tell the rest of the story and follow this post up with a Dreamroll recap. An all girls moto camp out deserves it's own real estate.</blockquote>

<u>Husqvarna Update</u></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: left;">
The week prior I was wrestling with the Husqy's intense vibration rattling everything to pieces, along with a very stubborn dragging clutch. I was barely able to get the bike rideable before the trip. My first attempt at making a luggage rack out of aluminum resulted in the welds cracking within the first 5 minutes. See, the TE570 was Husqvarna's bare bones, no frills platform. No key, no starter, no battery, steering lock, horn, or gauges. And unlike it's stablemates the TE400 and TE610... no counter balancer on the crank shaft. It's like straddling an oversized palm sander designed to polish out your genitals until you're smooth as a Ken doll. The trade off is it's a 260lb 56hp wheelie machine with an on/off switch for a throttle. In an attempt to sort out the clutch I swapped oil weights 3 times and replaced both the discs and the plates before I just ran out of time. It wanting to constantly lurch forward made red lights a real treat. Consequently I got pretty good at kicking it over first try in traffic. After swapping in a new rear sprocket in a Missoula TJ Maxx parking lot she was as ready as she was going to get. Over the next 2,000 miles I'd rattle the guts out of the PIAA lights and stuff the radiator 4 or 5 times but all in all it was a great shakedown run. Now it's time to make the final adjustments, tear it all down and send everything out for paint, powder and plating.</blockquote>

Have a general idea of what you want to do. Admittedly the below sketch is too thin for comfort so I'll be beefing it up some.</blockquote>

<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Make a seat pan. You can use aluminum, stainless steel or mild steel. If you use mild you'll need to powdercoat it (like I did). 16G is a good steel thickness. You may want to use a 14G for aluminum. Do not paint it. Most professional upholstery glues will eat through paint. </div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Go to your local upholsterer and test out some seat foam densities. Buy a roll of it (around $75 for 6'). Also pick up an electric carving knife. Get a nice one. The one shown here was only $20 and it burnt out within the first 10 min. You're going to put a lot of load on the motor cutting through dense foam. </div>

Cut out a rough shape, leaving some overlap off the edge of the pan. Use a spray adhesive to attach the foam to the seat pan.</blockquote>

Layer up the foam as thick as you want, using the spray adhesive to bond them together. I went with 2 slabs of 1.5" foam. After you get your cake layered use the carving knife to trace the shape of the pan, cutting off the excess.</blockquote>

Put the stack up on the bike and test the comfort. Remember you'll be taking material off so if you're on the fence about it's comfort now definitely add more foam. You shouldn't be able to feel the seat pan if you bounce up and down on it. Depending on the kind of seat you're after this is also a good time to grab a Sharpie and mark where you land on the foam. You can use these marks later to draw out contour lines to follow when you start carving.</blockquote>

Measure and draw in your guidelines with the Sharpie. Try to get your lines as symmetrical as possible before carving. Going at it freehand will likely cause you to take off more material than desired as you go from side to side trying to get them even. </div>

If you want crisp edges keep them sharp in the foam. When the upholstery is stretched over the form it will round them off quite a bit. For the upholsterer you can either draw up a stitching diagram of the seat or draw out your stitch lines right on the foam. Head over there, pick out some materials and throw your money down. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Vinyls are much more water resistant than leathers and look identical. Downside being the leathers wear in nicer and can be conditioned. Vinyls can be prone to creasing and cracking over time. The <a href="http://www.motomucci.com/2011/10/project-cx-full-shoot.html" target="_blank">CX500</a> seat is vinyl. It's been on there for about 6 years now and just started cracking this summer. I probably put a couple thousand miles on it a season. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's how the Husqvarna seat turned out. Black alcantara on black vinyl with a champagne stitch. If you're looking for a tuck and roll the upholsterer will lay down a 1/4"-1/2" layer of low density foam on top to give it the depth. Below is 1/4". Go for the 1/2" if you want it deep enough to hide the stitch. Vinyls will give more definition than leathers due to their stretch.</blockquote>

A few months back we were invited to take part in a 72 hour build competition called Wrench Against the Machine. Two teams of 3 get $3,000 and 72 straight hours to build a custom bike. We had mattresses on the floor in the back of the shop, an ice cold shower, and a Big Gulp worth of 5-hour energy. Over 3 days we lost 47 Sharpies, shaved off 3 years of life, and built a bike entirely out of short cuts. It was a terrible experience and I'd happily do it all again with that crew.</div>
