I have a very similar project... a 912cc diesel on a Road Star 1600cc frame

Nice bike. I've been thinking about doing something similar, I've got a 1992 Kawasaki VN-15 rolling chassis at home, it's just missing an engine.

She doesnt get alot of use, but when It comes out it is alot of fun. No issues other than cvt shifting issues, mostly at low speed. Upgrades coming soon

Some 2 stroke snowmobile CVT clutches can handle 150+ hp, but might be hard to come by in Australia, I'm guessing. Good luck.

Nvm, saw the qld plate but would still like to hear about your experience engineering it.
@alc7505 Жыл бұрын
Pretty easy. So long as it is built well, similar weight to original, less HP and emissions of the new engine comply with regulations of the year build of bike used. This build would not be possible on a more modern motorcycle due to nore strict emissions regulations. Also if you cut/ extend the frame it pushes costs through the roof as you have to get frame twist tests done once modified as well as brake and suspension testing.

My Arctic Cat diesel has a blower on the CVT. They use a Rule Bilge blower for a boat. Maybe you could adapt one to keep it cool?

Man, what a clean conversion. Untrained eye (I mean non-biker) might not even suspect that this is far from typical motorbike :) Holy shiet. Even some not so seasoned bikers might not notice two unusual things (diesel & CVT). Awesome. And it sounds amazing! Very industrial, almost brutal tone. Love it. Not to mention the consumption is probably laughable ;)

Thanks mate! Your right, very few ppl think its anything from a normal motorcycle. But when they're cluey enough to work it out, they want to spend all day checking it out!

@thehaze1972 Жыл бұрын
Well you basically solved the belt issue right there, cut some vents. 👍. CVT:s are really inefficient so they create lots of heat but they work really well. Really nice build! Big thumbs up! 👍

Nice build ! It looks like factory ! ........and i have a pair of Fiamm horns like yours ! Maybe you can install a mini 12V fan sold in electronic shops to keep the CVT belt cool. Great, just great ! Trinidad & Tobago. West Indies.

Nice job. Maybe changing the gear ratios could help with the belt slip. More teeth on the back sprocket or something. Also, make sure the swing arm doesn't tension the chain.
@alc7505 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your comment! Ive got it geared to do a maximum of around 110km/hr so there isnt much room to add more teeth on the back sprocket without making it a town bike at this stage

That’s a good conversion, looks factory, well done for persevering and finishing this so well. Cvt is a great idea but looks like the torque is overcoming the belt, hope you can get a decent gearbox as it’s going to unleash the potential.

Amazing !!! I have been dreaming of such a build since forever ! Scared to take up the project, worried I wont be able to complete it. Can you please answer some of my questions - 1. Why no transmission ? 2. My research result is that engine needs to mount hard on to frame, no soft bushings (Harley death wobble) - did you consider that? 3. Whats the top speed ? 4. How much does the motorcycle weigh ? Thanks for the video !
@alc7505 2 жыл бұрын
Definitely took alot of commitment to finish this project, thats for sure! Used a cvt because it was easy, cheap, plus at the time it seemed like it would work well with the low revving diesel. However I do experience belt slip alot at high speed and have decided to attempt to remove the cvt and fit an enfield 4 speed gearbox to get rid of the power loss. Will be interesting to see if i can fit it in there! The engine is mounted on bushes directly to the frame only and the factory suspension is 100% original so there is no rubber mounting to influence the rear swingarm. Everything runs really smoothly regardless of speed. Top speed is only about 120km/h. Sits on 100km/h fairly well but im hoping with the correct final ratios in the new gearbox and no belt to slip that it will get the power to the ground more efficiently and sit on the highway easier as well. The bike is almost exactly standard xvs1100 weight, cant remember off the top of my head but between 250-260kg I think.

What's the top speed and mileage for it
@alc7505 3 жыл бұрын
Top speed would be about 120km/hr. Havent tested mileage that well yet because the bike is still in testing and it gets rode hard everywhere.
