  • Motorcycle Rear Suspension
    Project Number: RD4-ABCK Motorcycle Rear Suspension A MAJOR QUALIFYING PROJECT REPORT SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE BY JACOB BRYANT ALLYSA GRANT ZACHARY WALSH DATE SUBMITTED: 26 April 2018 REPORT SUBMITTED TO: Professor Robert Daniello Worcester Polytechnic Institute Abstract Motorcycle suspension is critical to ensuring both safety and comfort while riding. In recent years, older Honda CB motorcycles have become increasingly popular. While the demand has increased, the outdated suspension technology has remained the same. In order to give these classic motorcycles the safety and comfort of modern bikes, we designed, analyzed and built a modular suspension system. This system replaces the old twin-shock rear suspension with a mono- shock design that utilizes an off-the-shelf shock absorber from a modern sport bike. By using this modern shock technology combined with a mechanical linkage design, we were able to create a system that greatly improved the progressiveness and travel of the rear suspension. Acknowledgements The success of our project has been the result of many individuals over the course of the past eight months, and it is our privilege to recognize and thank these individuals for their unwavering help and support throughout this process. First and foremost, we would like to thank our Worcester Polytechnic Institute advisor, Professor Robert Daniello for his guidance throughout this project. His comments and constructive criticism regarding our design and manufacturing strategies were crucial for us in realizing our product. We would also like to thank two other groups at WPI: The Mechanical Engineering department at WPI and the Lab Staff in Washburn Shops.

  • 250 Triumph/BSA Rocker Arm Mods As a Professional Triumph
    250 Triumph/BSA Rocker Arm Mods As a professional Triumph mechanic during the early 1970’s, I remember the 250cc singles very well. These machines were built by BSA, with some being re-branded to Triumph. Models included the BSA B25 and Triumph T25. They were easy to work on and fun to ride because the engine would rev up effortlessly. However, they were highly susceptible to valve flotation and subsequent valve train damage. And since these engines performed so well at high RPM, loss of compression from valve damage was something we saw all the time. Damage Repair To repair this problem, the first step is to remove the cylinder head and both RH engine covers to inspect the entire valve train. The cam followers (tappets) should slide freely in the engine case over their full length without binding, and fall out from the fully-lifted position under their own weight. A bent cam follower will bind at its extreme lift point. Bent tappets must be replaced. The exhaust valve can easily be checked for leaking by holding the exhaust port straight up and watching the combustion chamber while pouring in thin solvents. A bent valve will let solvent gush by. A valve in good condition should hold solvent for at least 3 seconds. Photo 1. Stock rocker arms and the compression release lug Future Prevention After replacing valves and lifters you have repaired the damage, but not the cause. The real culprit is that the valve train weighs too much to sustain high RPM. You could install heavier valve springs, but that would simply wear out the cam and cam followers.
