I tease, of course. Yes the terms are very confusing.

Re: Diesel Single Bobber Build
Looks good so far. Its amazing how much these little turbos whip up the oil. If you can use a piece of copper tube or something like it on your turbo return it will help dump some heat out of the return oil

Re: Diesel Single Bobber Build
Once I get a driver/driven combo I'll cobble up a more permanent oil return line.
I also did the PCV valve modification described by some guy on YouTube. Pretty straightforward, actually. Everything came out great.
Next is the plenum chamber.

Re: Diesel Single Bobber Build
Right.
So the bike has been home in Ohio for all this time, and, unfortunately, I go to school in Alabama. So I haven't been able to work on it except for over breaks.
The good news is that this week is exam week. So after this week, I'll be heading home and get this thing finished.
I'll kick it into gear once I get back. I'll have a full-time job/internship thing, but since I'm living at home, I should have plenty of time to work on it.

Re: Diesel Single Bobber Build
Here we go - some updates finally.
I can't weld well. I'm working on it, but I don't trust my 'skills' at all. So I've been saving up money and went with a custom frame builder, Cycle One Manufacturing, to build me a frame.

Just a shot of a rideable mockup I did over thanksgiving. So much more work needs to be done, but progress is being made.
