Blast from the past, ISR supermono carbon subframe

20 years

I went to the Britten 20years event the other week, well pleased with all the things I saw and people I got to know.
More on this later.

Bikeshow

Last week I was at the Swedish bike show, ISR had the supermono I did the carbon parts for on display.

Eicma

Long time since update, yes nothing much has been going on the workshop but on the planning stage more is happening.
I was at Eicma and talked to some companies about work in the future, looks good.

Best looking bike at Eicma

MRX

Here it is, the TYGA performance MRX kit for the Honda MSX125.
Design by Daniel Gunnarsson and I did the clay model, this was another 4 week job and even though it was very hectic, it was also very enjoyable.

Wait is over

well not just yet, or already...

I have been busy with my baby girl, now 3 months old, racing my miniGP bike and other new projects, but things are moving forward on an old project, same one as below, almost done...

?

Can´t say much about this work, but time will tell.

New tools

I buy some tools and make some my self, time to make new slicks.

DONE

And here she is, the ISR-Lindman supermono racer.
Tank/seat fairing,
self-supporting subframe that hold the radiator,
front and internal air channels for the radiator,
airbox and rear fender/hugger.
All designed and prototyped by me, all in carbon.

This marks the end of my work on this project, at least as far as prototyping goes.
It has been great to work with ISR and also to work on a bike that people like
Stellan Egeland has worked on.

I will now close the workshop door for others and focus on designing and claymodelling my own bikes,
but first a bit of summer.

Great success

Happy times, the rear subframe/ radiator housing turned out good.

Not that shiny but this is straight out of mold.

Update

Here are some parts for the ISR racer, hope to have the rest done in a couple of weeks.

Almost all

This is almost all the mold parts, just a light polish before release agent and then I can start to make parts, well that is if a rather worthless german company will deliver the resin this week,
only 3 weeks after I ordered.

Finally

its over.

Happy easter

Well thats me being happy for all the extra time I get in the workshop,
yesterdays 14 hours work took me back on pace with the molds, feels great.

waxed

This is how the surfaces looked after release agents, feels good to close the book
on the plug building stage.

On the side

This weekend I had a break in the ISR work, I painted the fairings for my brothers sidecar racer,
I also did the paint-scheme design in the first "photoshop" pic.

Next stage

In a matter of a day or two I can start to apply the release agents and then start with the mold making.


The fairing is not completely modified yet, but further work will be done after the exhaust is done.

Front view, air intake to the radiator.

Other side, throttle cables will not go down like this, they will enter the
airbox horizontally.

The fuel tank is obviously missing here, it will be under the airbox.

Intake

The air-intake for the radiator is complete, at least för the mockup fairing.

The mould

2mm "step" with the use of sheet wax was made, and then bagging.

 Mounted in the mockup fairing.

soon

Not long to go now before the subframe is 100%, it will be very nice to go in next stage,
waxing and mould making.

Small update

The air-intake is taking shape.
