Hi from Brisbane!
« on: December 06, 2016, 11:37:23 pm »
Hi all

Rider, restorer (and occasionally) crasher of old dirt bikes.  Started on a bombed out XR100 when I was 12, crashed it 20mins later, got a ripper burn scar out of it, the addiction was born haha.  I currently own a 2004 Husaberg FS650, 1995 Husqvarna WR360 and a kitted out 1992 CR500 in an alloy frame.  So technically nothing 'Vintage' yet but im a big fan of old european machines 8) Im 21 and living in Brisbane.  I have a little 3D printing business and Im very interested in reproducing bits for old bikes and making custom parts for all makes.  Ive been pushing very hard to perfect 3D printing in polyurethane to reproduce rubber parts for old bikes, and all signs so far are good.  As time goes on and I collect more and more bits I hope to add catalogues of parts for individual bikes to my store.  Ive got a few IT Yammy parts coming in this week.  Pretty cool anyway I love it!  A couple of really cool custom projects have been made possible by what I do.

Welcome to the funny farm.

I'd like you to 3D print some disk covers that look like drum brakes, a "Fin kit", and some fake shocks.
I'll fit them to a 2016 KTM300, and start a 57 page thread on evo class rules.

Actually, I'm sure one of my bikes needs some tank mount rubbers.....

Told this guy , on Facebook , to knock up some PE 250 sprocket covers and he may be able to sell a couple.
Said he'd think about it.
Ah the wonders of modern teck.

You don't need to go that far, just start a post with the word EVO in it.  It will be interesting to see how long it lasts.  However the new administrators may let it run.  You could also use the the words Pre 82 what a croc of shit.

My post RE EVO is meant to be sarcastic so please don't high jack this thread, although I have partly already done that.  I apologise in advance.

So duckhive3d could you make a inlet reed valve manifold for a Maico 490 and what would be the approximate cost?
