Very elusive. One of our members on another forum taught us about the cosine effect on radar. Mom is a math teacher and was able to use it as an object lesson in class. Unfortunately you can't use it to get yourself out of a ticket.

The Bostrom's said it was the fastest 99mph they have ever gone. The best way I can describe riding a motorcycle with a dustbin fairing in a crosswind is to watch a pitcher let go of a knuckle ball when you crack the throttle your don't know what side of the track you will end up on.

Zeke wants to replicate our fiberglass NSU Sportmax dustbin fairing and fashion one out of aluminum for greater Stability in the future.

Kevin Schwantz said the same thing you did to me when we returned to the pits. Then he smiled and said, "I know a rider that can take it to the ton"

So here we are ,THE true meaning of metelshaping or other hobby's
It is as much or even more About friends , father Son things
It is About love. And not only About building and owning bikes or cars
I love it

Working with your kids in an early stage on something like metalshaping is great priceless bonding and a good reference for live to come. It brings patience, disappointments, achievements, physical strength and jokes. And in this case a bike.....

Fantastic to see, Kids and there Dads in the shed.... That would be more than enough inspiration for me to stay in the shed.
If only my young bloke was even a little keen. He's got his L's and has a Mini Clubman in the shed and still has no drive to work on it........

It's a credit to you Patrick and your Son, So welcome to you both to the Forum.

Cheers John
