  • We Always Aim to Supply Transfers of the Highest Quality in Mint Condition
    INTRODUCTION We hope you enjoy reading through our latest catalogue. We aim to provide restorers and historic vehicle enthusiasts with transfers and graphics to the highest attainable standard. Our background is mainly motor cycle orientated but over the years we have found that many motor cycle transfers were used on bicycles, and vice versa. If you are unable to find what you need always ask - we may be about to have the item printed. The majority of our stocks are the popular waterslide transfers but we also supply vinyl graphics where originally they were in that format. Low volume sellers are also supplied as vinyl graphics where a waterslide print run would be totally uneconomic. We use only best quality cast 10 year vinyl with a 'thinness' of 50 microns (2 thou inch). We are also able to offer white registration letters and numbers in four sizes, 1¾ inch and 2½ inch deep for motor cycles and 3 inch and 3½ inch for three wheelers and motor cars. See last page for further details. By far the majority of our artwork is produced by hand-drawing (as were the originals) and we resist the temptation to produce transfers using standard computer fonts, thus keeping the period look of the originals. We have tried to be as accurate as we can with the relevant location and year information in our listings, but your detailed knowledge of a particular model may well be greater than ours. LEGEND 4 Figure ref. nos. only - Waterslide Type 4 Figure ref. nos. suffixed by LC - Vinyl Graphics Best quality, 2 thou material V - Varnish Fix R.L.H.

  • Optimization of a Motorcycle Wheel Rim Using CAD and CAE Software's
    © 2019 JETIR April 2019, Volume 6, Issue 4 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Optimization of a Motorcycle Wheel Rim Using CAD and CAE Software’s Deshabhakt Gavali#1, Harshwardhan Dhumal#2, Niranjan Dindore#3,Parag Betgeri#4, P.H. Lokhande#5 #Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sinhgad College of Engineering, SPPU, Pune-41. Abstract - Wheel Rims form a vital part of two wheeler vehicles. There are two main types of motorcycle rims, namely, Solid Wheels and Spoked Wheels. Solid wheels are the ones in which both the rim and the spokes are manufactured from the same material. While Spoked wheels are the ones in which the motorcycle rim is laced with a number of high tension spokes. This project mainly deals with the optimization of the spoked wheel rim with respect to its weight. The design of the rim is created in a suitable CAD software while, a CAE software is used for analysing the rims for critical conditions. Loading conditions like tyre pressure, radial load and bending load are simulated during the finite element analysis of the component. The geometry of the wheel is optimized until satisfactory results of stress and displacements are obtained. This optimization includes varying the number of spokes and removal of material from the spokes and hub area. ETRTO manual and AIS 073 (Part 2), these standards are referred during the design and analysis stage. Four different models are analysed and compared with each other. The fully optimized model is found to be ’23.587 %’ lighter than the basic design. While it is also found to be safe in all the testing conditions.

  • Note 138: Isle of Man TT Mountain Circuit:- Course
    P.1 of 9 Note 138 Isle of Man TT Mountain circuit:- Course Records Writing Note 137 about Indianapolis reminded this author that there is another circuit used for racing since 1911 which is almost unchanged – the Isle of Man Mountain circuit. This Note reviews the course records achieved there by Tourist Trophy motor-cycles and puts them in perspective with the machine Power/Weight ratios. The Mountain course of 37.73 miles used since 1920* rises to a height of 1,400 feet. It had a large surface change from mostly loose to tarmacadamed by 1925 and has had many corners “eased” since then but its plan is essentially unchanged. Unlike Indianapolis, with its 4 left-hand quarter- circle corners, it has 264 bends of every description! The plan is shown below. DASO 1246 *For the 1911-1914 races the course was 37.7 miles. In 1920 a change was made for the last few miles from Cronk-ny-Mona to bring the Start/Finish line onto the Glencrutchery Road. Course Record list As there does not seem to be readily available a consolidated list of outright Course Records one has been assembled from various sources. It is given in Appendix A at P. 6. There may be omissions. The figures are plotted on Fig. 1 at P.2 below, with various appropriate notes.
