I make a Bimota SB6 Replica from Suzuki GAG. I restore the parts in the air.

Old post share.

Last time I calculated each dimension from a photograph and drew a figure it.

The parts that I currently have the real thing is a used frame and a used swing arm and a used cowl.

If I can assemble it according to this drawing in the air, I scan it and can get 3D model.
Even if we say scan, software is evolving, so I just shoot with a digital camera.

As a means to support the frame in the air without tire or wheel, I decided to make a stand.
I use aluminum frame, well known to those working in technical field.
MISUMI and SUS are famous.

Basically the aluminum frame is cut and sold.
The end of the part number is the length and it is supposed to be able to order by designating the length as it is. For example SFF-304-L600.
When I order it, the processed aluminum frame arrives with considerable short delivery time.

In case of SUS, it is convenient because it sticks a seal of part number one by one to the frame.
But, time to remove it is necessary.

Orthogonal angle and mounting bolt nut etc are all standardized and use it to connect this.
It is easy to assemble with screw clamp only.
The amount of money is cheap, too.
It is one aluminum frame, several hundred yen.
Even the longest extruded material is about 1000 yen.
I buy it a lot and assemble it.

Support rear axle shaft, a swing arm pivot, a three-pronged part and become independent.
I fix it while looking at the clearance of each parts and the overall balance.

I tried to try it, but it is the width of the shoulder that reminds me of Kawasaki ZX-10.
B6 was manufactured in 1994 – 1998 years.
ZX-10 was manufactured in 1988 – 1990 years.
I felt quality of being 90s.
A Bimota does not have a feeling of building materials unlike ZX-10.

The motorcycle at that time, which is big and heavy and makes a rough sound, is nostalgic.

After that,I attach a cowl, a tank, a seat , and it is a 3D scan!
