For my FZR build, it involves smooshing together quite a few different parts from different bikes, so I decided, being a Mech eng/CAD student I may as well model the parts as they go on, in solidworks, this is primarily for lining up engine mounts and getting the suspension geometry right, as well as forseeing any possible problems I'll run into, before I hit them. Anyway I got the shock I'll be using the other day, and spent a few hours today making it up and doing some renders

This is what a shock made from gold would look like

And sponge

And finally, the shock lined up with the (very unfinished) FZR400 frame

I'll upload the flyaround video tonight, as well as some pics of the actual shock. Karma for anyone who recognises what it is |
