It's just an exhaust hanger, but there are also a few other finished bits to highlight too. The bike is progressing well now that the composite work is all done and I'm a bit more in my comfort zone. In the next few weeks, I'll get some photos up of the front subframe completion, more details on the lighting and some more photos of final trims of the bodywork.
CAD images are always exciting, so here are some screenshots of the exhaust hanger design on the rear subframe assembly.
Below is a photo of the exhaust hanger on the bike. Also of note is the finished stainless link pipe, now fully welded and given a brushed finish. The completion of these two parts meant that the Arrow titanium silencer could be fitted and the engine run. Sounds real good! If i can work out how to get a sound clip up, I may upload a teaser.
Whilst we were having the exhaust hanger lasercut, we had a few other parts done including the heel plates and some front subframe components. The front subframe had never been finalised, due to the need of having an actual front fairing to work out the correct location of the mounting points. Now we have this, the subframe was refined and finalised in CAD. Some of these parts had a large enough change to warrant being lasercut once again, but this time in thicker 3mm aluminium. More on all these developments next time.
