regarding the clutch release, would it be an advantage to have the lever angled so that the cable adjuster is located on the longest arm of the plate? (less of a sharp angle for the cable)
@@StoneEng What about a circular disc with a groove around it's circumference and a cut out for the cable end nipple instead of the lever, it should make the cable path a bit easier ?
@@MidEngineering not particularly. It's a combination of getting the right thread pitch for steel into aluminium, and (most importantly) whatever tap we happen to have handy 😁
@@anonhunter5191 definitely and thank you. I'd seen the odd short video but this one's got more info. Best thing about it is that it's finished. Great effort.
Excellent work as usual, I love my shaper, I reckon having a shaper in your shed is like owning a plug in steam engine 👍
I like the way you mix imperial and metric measures. Very cool project 👍👍
Looking good

Tidy.

@@kathrynwhitby9799 possibly yes. I need to see where the cable is coming from (on the bike) and work out the best place for it.

3/8" Whitworth?! Are you keeping the fasteners (and everything else?) imperial to stay in harmony with the old engine?

Hope that Chinese motor does the job.
Of interest
