  • @LitchKB
    @LitchKB 5 лет назад +18

    From the specs I can gather...
    RPM = 10,000RPM
    Primary Drive = 1.971
    Gear Ratio = (5th) 1.037
    Output sprocket = 17T (From workshop manual)
    Driven sprocket = 60T (Counted in video)
    Tyre Diameter = 26X9R12 = 26" diameter
    Tyre Circumference (meters) = PI x Diameter x (0.0254 inches per meter)
    Max speed = RPM / (Primary Reduction x Current Gear's Ratio) x (Output / Driven) x TyreCircumference x 0.06 (Meters Per Minute -> km/h)
    Max speed = 10,000RPM / (1.971 x 1.037) x (17T / 60T) x 2.07m x 0.06 = 173km/h (107mph)
    That's about spot on.
    1st gear (@2.733 ratio) @ 7500RPM gets you to 30mph - which is useful, could be a bit lower, but still... If we guess torque to be near peak at 7500RPM (~60ftlbs), then torque at the wheels at that point will be about 600ftlb (which is also heaps). Should be a fun ride.

    You should really really learn what dead tube junction is in roll cage design and why you shouldn't be adding them all over that cage. There are tons of hard ridden buggies of similar design/size that weigh well under 1000lbs finished. Throwing more and more tube at it does not mean it's stronger.

      @@tom5051666 By keep adding weight everywhere it's only gonna make the main issues show up that much faster. I been trying to give him tips from the first video of this I noticed a problem. He doesn't fix anything and just keeps throwing gussets at everything
      If he is lucky stuff will start buckling at low speed in his yard where the injuries might be lesser. Personally I wouldn't trust this thing over 25mph the way it is. If he showed up at the inspection pit back when I drag raced they wouldn't have even let him drive it on the property, made him push it back on the trailer. Off road is much more harsh on parts than street.
      I"M far far far from knowing everything there is about the finer parts of cage and suspension design but I have built and raced a tube chassis drag truck that passed NHRA inspection with flying colors. I hate to see anybody get hurt.

      I was here thinking the same I’m seeing a lot of them dead tubes! A lot of people think that dead tubes don’t matter because it’s not for “legal” racing but it’s actually for safety in general! So that’s why is something really important to keep in mind!!

    You really should learn how to properly build a cage. Way too heavy and you just randomly add more pieces that don’t run through properly.

    those V4 engines from the 80's are fast but they had issues with reliability, (the internal cam chain tensioners are the first thing that come to mind). Also if you are going to put a bunch of time into getting it running good you might just look for a v65 magna that was wrecked or try to find a parts bike to get the CDI box regulator rectifier and Wire harness plus you can grab the control switches and then have headlights and street spec it out. i would think that will be cheaper than trying to piece meal every part you need. Just my 2 cents, keep it up I like your ambition!

      As long as the buggy isn't tipped much during the process the weight will be pretty accurate. It's the same as using a scale at each corner but one corner at a time. To make it completely accurate just need to put blocks the same height as the scale under the other three wheels.

      You do know that race cars are weighed with scales under each wheel right?

    I'm finding it difficult to confirm the model. The VF1100 "V65" engine came on the Magna and the Sabre (early '80s) - both was shaft driven, so that doesn't fit with what you've got there - though it appears the "VF1000" (1984+; more or less the successor to the Sabre&Magna) was chain-driven and also matches the gearbox logo better with your example (whereas the VF1100 Sabre, Magna, had a chrome/polished cover) - so I'm not sure what's going on there. You appear to have a VF1000 variant. The peak power/torque is the same ballpark, so it's not a point of contest - I was just interested in comparing them for my own analysis. Maybe even find a dyno sheet on the internet for it - see where the torque band sits, or if it's still race-tuned like the CBR and needs to rev out (in which case you're back at square one with another race engine that would benefit from proper gearing) - I was also interested in peak speed, and was going to ballpark the gearing you have there x engine max RPM x top gear ratio x wheel diameter, see if that could be optimised with some different sprokets.

    I would remove the stock exhaust change that motor mount by drive sprocket a chain idler is not going work well like that I also make that front motor mount as removed now as for the exhaust run pipe individually as in 4 into 1 collector then muffer by the way you said this was a VF1100 funny thing was they where shaft drive to me it look like you have Interceptor 1000 motor which was chain drive

    What's 20lbs more triangulation tubing VS 15,000lbs more chassis tensile strength? I've done some math on my builds and I don't skimp on triangulation whatsoever. It's just not worth it. It barely adds up to anything compared to the rest of the rig, but adds incredible strength to the chassis. I have a buggy my buddies Dad accidentally launched like a supercross bike and flat landed waaaay past the landing. The chassis is fully triangulated and it survived perfectly. The right front shock and a arm weren't so lucky, but it was still driveable, and he wasn't broken, just hurt. I try to plan for the unplanned.

    @darrynruzicka2883 5 лет назад

    Dude, like you said, FORGET about the REVERSE! It's not applicable in a build like this. Stop banging your head against the wall about it. Next, you're probably going to find out, if you really start to pound this thing, the structure around the motor might be a little weak but I could be wrong so just go with what you have for now. Also, instead of expensive heavy diamond plate you can run expanded metal. I surely hope the motor is in good shape and say it is. Don't forget about exhaust! That's huge! Not just in terms of fitment but even more importantly on something like this, horsepower. You are going to have to buy a performance exhaust for that motor if you expect to get any kind of power out of it. A home made set of pipes will be a joke. So design around a performance exhaust system made for that motor. Btw - lol, noticing from your past total lack of planning, when you go to buy your carbs and exhaust, they need to match and /or at the very least you need to have your carbs jetted to match your exhaust. You're moving up from lawn mowers to more serious power so you better pay attention to these things or you're going to find yourself very frustrated. Great job so far, though!

But they weighed 1/2 what your project does. I'm betting you will need to change the rear sprocket thow

    a couple of tips and questions:
    1. have you ever thought about making yourself an engine crane? it'll be handy!
    2. how much space do you think you're gonna need for that fw/rev gearbox? the whole drive chain doesn't necessarily have to be in-line, you can put the gearbox above the rear axel.
    3. how long do we have to wait to see this thing to running??
    great job so far! by the way!!!!!

  • @rdcoburnsr
    @rdcoburnsr 5 лет назад

    The V4 has a lot of torque. I owned two V65 Sabre’s with this engine. Your engine came out of the Interceptor ( chain drive ). When you get the carbs and all the electrical working and running you’ll need a manometer to balance the carbs or you’ll have issues. You picked an excellent engine, just be careful in the higher gears. They may not be able to handle any hard jerks or undo torque. I had the fifth gear lobes break on my ‘85 Sabre from going to hard on them. I’m enjoying the build, can’t wait until the final product rolls.

    Pay very close attention to the carbs when you rebuild a set.
    The front and rear carbs have different parts in them. They are very very close but different. I rebuild about 50 sets a year for these bikes and they are always mix matched on where the parts end up.

  • @killerminecraft123
    @killerminecraft123 5 лет назад

    Larger tubing and less tubing. Larger tires like 35s will help soak up bumps so you dont run the suspension dry. With larger tires you could run the tightest coil overs they make so it could handle serious air time. If you build a second one, go to the junk yard and find a cheap car or van with a decent 6/4 cylinder and trans axle. Messing around with chains and axles will get old quick and independent suspension will break less.
