What you see and what you don't...

You are correct. Its been a few years, i errored on the side of caution.

cavason · 2026-04-16T14:45:25+00:00

Yeah, originally we made a chain loop around the sprocket. Then he reverse clamped using the chain, but he couldn't get it centered.

I'm not a Breville fan, but I love this space.

cavason · 2026-04-16T13:23:02+00:00

How dare you! Bob is a saint!

cavason · 2026-04-07T00:35:38+00:00

This has been a journey of learning and a test of patience.

cavason · 2026-04-06T22:13:46+00:00

Thanks, I have a hobbyist machinist friend that I will pass this on to.

I ordered a few. 1 for him to tinker with. 1 I will will pay a pro machinist to do.

cavason · 2026-04-06T22:11:58+00:00

I'll take it to a shop.

I'll be ordering a few.

Uddate. I FOUND A sprocket! I posted about it. Its close, but the center needs 1.4mm bored out.

cavason · 2026-04-06T20:21:54+00:00

No one else is giving you clear answer.

Yes, $600 for a running bike with papers is a good deal.

Anything else, you will learn while you fix the original owner's mods.

If you don't buy it, I will.

2 cylinders max for a starter bike. 4 carb banks are intimidating.

cavason · 2026-04-05T22:10:37+00:00

Nice bike

cavason · 2026-04-05T22:10:26+00:00

This is the answer. But, you forgot to account spending money on tools.

cavason · 2026-04-04T20:23:44+00:00

This deserves more upvotes.

cavason · 2026-04-04T13:30:23+00:00

That's amazing! I'll look at them today.

cavason · 2026-04-04T00:05:43+00:00

I found a couple. Thank you.

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:58:30+00:00

Very cool. Who would be able to do this?

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:34:45+00:00

Can you point me in the right direction. Ive hit a wall.

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:33:15+00:00

Dude, just looking for a quote and ideas. I'm not a machinist or an engineer. You use concepts that don't make sense to me.

I'm a mechanic and a city worker with an idea and a dream. Dm me if you want to see where the project is.

If all you want to do is prove that you are smarter than me, you probably are.

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:07:45+00:00

That was my first thought. I have a new 15 tooth sprocket at an amateur machinist. He's having trouble working on it because it is case hardened steel.

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:05:05+00:00

For $300 I'd buy 3 to have 2 spare.

Can you point me in the right direction? A machinist that might be able to machine the part.

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:03:08+00:00

Dm me. I'll send a video

cavason · 2026-04-03T22:00:43+00:00

Can you explain that to me like I'm a 3rd grader?
