The virago back in the old days

Found some old pictures of the day we just picked up the virago. Michiel is making a test run here. Later during the build we noticed that it was only running on one cilinder..:-S noobs..
Also some pictures of our first attempt strippin the bike and rippin off all the junk and ugly stuff. (check the uglyness of that frame)

As you can see in the last picture the bike looks somewhat different now. :-)
We were planning on doing a photoshoot with a girlfriend of michiel today, but the weather is absolutely horroble..
We are planning to sell the virago for some time now, but first we need some nice pics.

3D printer

As an engineer I've been interested in these things for quite some time now, printing and building almost everything you can imagine on your desktop. It sounds like science fiction, but these things are fairly easy to build.

I can think of à million things I'd make for the bike building, so ok, I just had to buy one!!

My reprap printer came in a kit, almost everything included...almost.. The reseller had to ship in parts up to four times, because hè forgot to put them in the first shipment..
Anyway I'm pretty far with the build, tonight Ill be do some testin and see if i can get the electronics hooked up.

As u can see on The photo, lot of parts are printed on an other printer, so you can print one for your mates :-D

Ill keep u posted!

the Sr500 at last...

So we finally did it... We picked up the Sr500 that we bought some time ago.. it was waiting for us all this time in the shed at my mums place.
We started rippin off all the cables and junk and very quickly things already began to look good.

Grinding away all the little mounts and other worthless peaces of the frame resulted in some really nice pictures.
Anyway, were lookin forward on building this thing. We already had some parts laying around so we couldnt resist checkin out how'd they look on the bike.

Our intention is to build somekind off scramber but we'll see how things turn out.
