Motorcycles in miniature

Hi all.
I once promised Winky upload pictures of motorcycles that I'm building,it's time to keep the promise, this is my first bike.

Very nice work.

[ShaneJackson]

All I can say is WOW!! That is very cool. How long did it take?

[everlastsupport]

Can you give us idea on the scale? Great work as you always do. Mono shock huh. I like the bearings for spokes too. Very cook and nice details. What tools to shape things, like fenders and tank. I would sell them if I were you...

Amazing work! I, too, like the bearing wheels. Need to thank Winky for getting you to post these pictures. They are fantastic. Cheers!

I was just thinking the other day how long it has been since you've posted something, then you show up with this beauty. Amazing! I can see most of the parts you built it with, what did you use for the gas tank?

Mike, as far as scale, the mufflers are deepwell sockets, I'm guessing 1/4" drive, but could be wrong. If you can make out the sizes in any of the pics, that would pin it down for sure. The bottom pic looks sort of like 4mm to me.

After I posted, I caught the sockets and it looks like bolts for the jog and heads. Funny each look the more you see.

Basically scale is size of one meduim size kitty.

Ruslan always has something cool. Got to give him that.

Yours are much nicer ... but ...I don’t think I ever posted this one … here is a trike I made last year coffin tank, nut headlight, bolt motor, nickel hub caps, bearing rear wheels, drive chain link shifter and rear brake, laid down rough beads on the seat to make it look cushioned and the wheels and yoke turn. Not my best work but my wife bugged me to make a trike now she wants me to make a side hack … never satisfied lol.

Nice tricycle, Winky
I finished building Honda_Furious_(Concept_2011),Tomorrow i will perform blackening models and lay out the final photo motorcycle.
here are some photos of the construction process.

[Winky]

Outstanding ... I know how much time and effort a model specific replica can take ... I've done quite a few in which you can see what they are representing … classic Triumphs and old Harleys are my favorites to do … I’ve posted a few of them before.

dimensions

tank and fenders are made of sheet steel 1-1.2 mm, forming the right curves on the stump, using tools like these
offers to sell have already received, but I yet don't sell,i wait until my son will play enough
made of all what it is not necessary

[undercut]

Simply fabulous. I love how you created the tank and the seat. Cute cat too!

[donor76]

[zoama]

Very nice work. This one has so much detail... stippling the seat was a great idea.

[MoparCar]

Outstanding! How many hours do you have it for the finished bike in hand? Great work!

[donor76]

Guys Thank you for comments!

How many hours do you have it for the finished bike in hand?

about 3 - 5 hours
I find it hard to say exactly how many hours I spent on the construction of the bike,
because I built it in between times for 3 weeks for 10-30 minutes a day (as the inspiration and will then build).

Now I'm building (Honda_Furious)

Nice, I love the tread on the tire, chain is neat too. No fenders probably saved a little time. Very nice Ruslan. What was the sprocket out of?

Ditto on the tread. I notice a few more details like hand levers and foot brake as well, nicely done.

Let the guessing begin: I bet the sprocket is from a clock/timer of some sort.

What was the order of the build? frame, swing arm, tubes, wheels, etc? My son want to try one for fun. New to TIG (I have three sons, two TIG). If this makes him want to weld, I will help him.
