motorcycle frame jig design

We then in the year 2000 get a New build of BSA "Otter".Sammy Miller and Howard Fawkes from HGV engineering in Cornwall decided to join forces in a venture to build a New batch of "Otter" frames using one of the Foster original copies as a pattern for the New Jig.These became known has the Faber framed "Otter" and sold mostly through Sam's, Sammy Miller Motorcycles Trials outlet, eventually to be known has Sammy Miller Products. One hundred of these frames were sold quite quickly for something from a minority sport. Sam eventually went his own way and had "Otter" frames of his own made for a while, there are still some of these that are still used and can be spotted because of the bolt on subframe.To satisfy the powers that be in the Scottish two day trial at the beginning of May every year,Howard from Faber Frames came up with a Mk 3 version of his "Otter" frame.This frame although mostly in the spirit of the original frame now had added engine under-run rails and a bent spine frame more like a BSA C15 but of bigger section.

I feel Now in 2015 it is time for a New batch of the Faber MK2 frames and am going to do my best to persuade Howard At Faber Frames to build a New BatchThis is a Mk 2 Faber "Otter" BSA built by Dave and Pete Dawson who also took the photo.After now owning a couple of Faber Framed BSA Otters, I decided to have a go at building my own frame.I started with a replica of the original Scott Ellis British Experts Winning machineWorking with only a picture in the Don Morley book "Classic British Trials Bikes". I then built the Pat Slinn designed frame for the "TopCat" Triumph Cub.After this machine was built using a frame jig that I had made,I decided after a conversation with a friend to see how cheap I could build a "Otter" frame.This was the "OOTC" bike below.Other "Otter" frames were built including one built from Square tubing,the SQ framed machine.We now have the Foster Original frame jig, so that production can restart with these frame to the Original Specification.So on these pages there is, as I have said, all the information to go ahead and have a go at building your own machine from scratch, if you wish, and many using this site for guidance now have.

We now in 2016 add a new frame builder to the list of people producing Scott Ellis Replica frames.

So this is the stage we are at, with a couple more cross braces to add and a few welds to finish off. Then we can look at machining the bores for the bearings and correcting the distortion that has occured on the top tubes where they meet the aluminium block at the the rear. Learn - How To Adventures in Metal » In the Making Limited Edition Street Tracker by Fuller Moto Posted 07 October 2016 The LIMITED EDITION FM STREET TRACKER began with the collaboration between Central Ohio’s Lloyd Brothers Motorsports and Fuller Moto to create the new Team Ducati Flat Track Race Bike to compete in the American Flat Track Series (AFT);

formerly known as AMA Pro Flat Track. The team of David and Michael Lloyd of Lloyd Brothers Motorsports has been involved in motorcycle racing for 30 years. In 2015, Lloyd Brothers Motorsports and Fuller Moto partnered to create a new race chassis utilizing innovative design and engineering processes. The motorcycle has since proven itself as a highly acclaimed Flat Track Racer in the AFT Series.Fuller Moto is pleased to present an Exclusive Offer of ten (10) LIMITED EDITION FM STREET TRACKER Projects available from Chassis Rollers to full Turn-Key, Design-Build Custom Bikes.Taken straight from the track, the AFT Series Race Chassis provides the backbone of the LIMITED EDITION FM STREET TRACKER. Each chassis is fabricated from 4130 Chromoly Tubing on the Lloyd Brothers Motorsports Race Team JIG. Every bung, plate, and tube is CNC Designed, Machined, and Laser-Cut with exacting precision. The LIMITED EDITION FM STREET TRACKER is expertly hand-assembled and Lincoln Electric TIG welded by Master Fabricator Bryan Fuller of Fuller Moto.

Dedicated to his creative vision and fueled by his passion, Sloan MacKarvich goes the distance to bring the high-performance 'Nighthawk' to life. Fuller Moto is proud to be helping the MacKarvich team finish this passion project. Stay tuned as we continue to provide updates of this project until its final completion... Growing up in a family manufacturing and fabrication business is a great source of pride, and makes for unique experiences as one learns both a trade and hopefully how to manage a dynamic business. However and as many know well, one's professional career may not marry up with what someone is truly passionate about outside of work. Sloan MacKarvich has always had a passion for anything with a motor that happens to go fast, but he is also equally passionate over discovering new ways to employ a wide array of fabrication assets. His father Chuck MacKarvich, started Tie Down Engineering 45 years ago in a one car garage with an old Lincoln Buzzbox welder. Since then, Tie Down has grown to nine world class manufacturing facilities.

With the strength and versatility of Tie Down Engineering, Sloan began to seek his entrance into the automotive world. After meeting Bryan Fuller, he became fascinated by the custom projects at Fuller Moto and was hooked. He shared with Bryan his desire to be in the automotive industry but had no idea how to go about it. Bryan’s simple advice to Sloan was "Just do it man!" Although not in the same industry segment as Fuller, through the Industrial Laser Solutions division, Tie Down began to support various vehicle projects ranging from a monocoque bus chassis to military vehicle armor systems. These opportunities and lessons would further hone a capability that would play a unique role in what is now a very successful vehicle adaption. After the completion of the vehicle armor project, Sloan was approached by Warren van Nus and Kevin Patrick. Kevin had been importing a new race car frame from the UK under the Exomotive brand. They were pitching an opportunity to redesign the “Exocet” under license for the US market.

Warren van Nus's new design utilized the manufacturing capabilities of Tie Down Engineering, and an innovative laser-cut tab and slot system reduced chassis weld time from 35 to less than 9 man-hours. As a cost saving measure, they were even able to utilize existing CNC bend tooling from the armor project. With those precise bending operations of tubing and sheet metal, Warren's new frame was precise enough to self-jig on a special laser-cut table. This brought high-quality production to the low volume grassroots world of motorsports. The new Tie Down built frame was measured to be about seven times stiffer than the original and the safety structure complied with all major sanctioning bodies for road course use. After the initial success of launch, production of that initial vehicle and is now among the most successful low volume enthusiast vehicles available. Once production was running smoothly, Warren and Sloan wished to apply the lessons learned from the Exocet to a vehicle with higher performance goals.
