Paul Minnaert Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 I explained the idea here before, but now I made my own. Very simple, a piece of carbon from 21x31cm. But it can be some other material. Then a hole in it to let the shockabsorber come thrue it, some 8cm from the top. This will keep water out of the gearbox for shure. Only mounting is done with two tyraps, around the diagonal schwingarm tubes.
leafman60 Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 Good show, Paul. I did a similar deal last year for my V11. Ive meant to take pics and post it. I also added a second piece attached above to the upper inner fender area to overlap this shock-surrounding piece. (By the way, you gotta allow for the rear drive strut.) What I have now is almost a trap-door situation with a fixed extension from above and this swingarm-mounted shock surround which moves with the swingarm. Very little passes.
Mike Stewart Posted April 26, 2004 Posted April 26, 2004 Funny, I was just thinking about the same setup this morning. I was thinking about mounting it to the shock bolt via some tabs. Good work Paul, Mike
