The bike looks superb and you've made a great job of it. Much as I'm happy with my 10hp Enfield your new bike looks like one that could take on a similar petrol bike - and win.

Good luck finishing it off and I hope to see the bike at either the Big Knock or Hamm 2009.

Heiko,
that bike look very good

There seems to be plenty of room in the Tigger frame for the engine and box.
Question time

What size cogs did you use on the engine and gearbox and what is the top speed on the bike?

hi
you had to write easy english. i dont know cogs but i think you mean spockets. now is 21 and 48 but i change it in
front 19 back 44. because the chain slips light on frame when i close acceleration. 21 i light to big.
runs in 5 gear 130 and 6 hold the speed . perhaps faster . i dont go much yesterday was not my nummber. but at 70 kmh you can put 6 gear and accelerate very good.

when it is complete ready i put here fotos.
ciao heiko

Hey Heiko

Great job with the bike, as Dan suggest 10hp engines are fun but having something with really good pulling power and behaves a little more like a motorcycle engine would be nice sometimes.

Red tape where I live really kills any possibility of running a 3cyl diesel, especially if you want to use a Turbo diesel

.

The video looks like you had a lot of fun making it

.

Look forward to any more pics and feedback on the build.

That Lombardini 903/1003 looks like the 'right' motor for practical bikes. Even the Harley gearbox looks 'tight' in the package.

Re-pub from dieselkrad:

The horizontal mounts will make mounting rubber isolators easier, too. I like that layout.

Well done!

Heiko,

hallo neil
very cool link but i put all data in tabelle, but i get only NAN in all gears.
what does it mean?

NaN means "not a number". Basically the calculation on the web page did not work for some reason. For example a divide by zero error (infinity).

Check everything that you put in on the page. I get this error for example if I put Jack Shaft In = 0.

no i know
my mistake was that i made , not . between the nummbers.
its ver cool.
better than to calculate every gear.
good night heiko
