| Description for Image 1: After a long time, I finally re-made the upper parts of the throttle levers. The old ones were made for different distance of the levers, so that I had big gaps between the throttle handles, instead of them sitting close toghether as shown here. | |
| Description for Image 2: The levers are made out of 15x2mm aluminum rods, bent according to a drawing/dxf file I've made to calculate the lenghts and angles. | |
| Description for Image 3: the throttle unit with the new cover (yellow PCV sheet) and the main throttle levers (steel) to which the aluminum parts will be srewed on. | |
| Description for Image 4: the front. The holes in the steel levers are not very accurate... which meant I had to calculate all holes to be made in the alu parts out for each lever. | |
| Description for Image 5: The throttle cover... the material is easy to work with. Its a kind of "foam" PCV. It can be cut with a knife. | |
| Description for Image 6: The four slots in the PCV cover were partly made (esp. the finnish) with Stephen's XYZ machine (see "Tools" section). I tried filing it straight, but it didn't work as nice as I would have liked it, so I used the machine to mill the slots. This came out great :-) | |
| Description for Image 7: The top parts of the levers mounted in place. | |
| Description for Image 8: in closeup | |
| Description for Image 9: again | |
| Description for Image 10: Here now the closeup of the machine-milled (but not cleaned up) slot... | |
| Description for Image 11: This is how the slot looks after cleaning up. | |
