Get the lead out

[Klapatta]

While the old forum was down I finally got around to gettin offa my butt and make a weight bracket for the 100.

It straddles across the width underneath

Had to mill a notch to allow clearance for the brake clevis. I gave it the 194 pound end bounce test and there was almost no flex- that 6061-T6 aluminum is rugged stuff. All that was on hand was 1 1/4" and I wanted 1" so I had to turn a 3 foot length down to 1"-try doin that on lunch break without gettin noticed.

A while back I had molded up a bunch of 10 and 20 pound lead weights and they fitted between the foot rests and fenders perfectly,these are old melted down wheel weights.

There are 2 20 pounders and 3 10 pounders mounted in this shot- it can hold 90 a side without flopping around and that happens to be how many I made.
