This is what I got from the drawings tell me if anything is off when you measure it and we will change to be right.

1. I could not get the overall length right off the front of neck but the back of lower tube of neck could get close.
2. I suspect there is a slight angle difference between the back bone and the upper tubes on the hardtail? I got 4 degrees difference the best I could do and make look right to me with the drawings and the pictures?
3. The front mount tabs are really lost to me on there location right now?
4. Not knowing a angle for the axle plates and tubes in the rear had to take my best guess?
5. Tried to research and find the neck angle for the bike but, could not find 35 degrees worked the best with what measurements I had or it seemed to me anyway?
6. Took a guess at all the mounting bolt sizes?

Here is what I got now?

Do not worry about the sharpness of the frame in drawing right now. After it is perfected I can put the radius in on all the tube bends and dimension them.

The bad news curt. I lost the draftsight file of the cad on this!

The GOOD news is it is now made in AutoCad.

Sorry I took so long.

Autocad file:

Screen shot we will find a way for you to review it.

Maybe Gary will open it up and put his real COOL Chopper Builders Handbook Banner Logo on the print?

looks great to me thanks for the hard work Nate . I just wanted to share with everyone . if there is anything missing that someone needs let me know I am keeping the frame as a reference after I set my jig up so I can always go back to it . hope someone finds it useful . if someone can put this in the frame plans section that would be great thanks.

Here curt check the print with your frame Please?

There is a full drawing and 4 drawings printed seperate to make a large drawing to be able to read the numbers.

Anything can be changed?

Full

https://www.dropbox.com/s/gjcpoq71tphkc ... l.xps?dl=0

Print 1 thru 4 added together makes a large 4 sheet drawing.

curt has checked the print says it is GOOD!

I have revised the print and radius the tubes in the Top and Front view and also made the text in the dimensions larger easier to read.

This is the CAD drawing file.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/3k0jezcg6cia9 ... 1.dwg?dl=0

This is the Full page print.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/u9jkjyqgem96i ... 9.xps?dl=0

Add these 4 together to make a large 4 pages print.

Great work on that frame design but if you look into some of the data derived from structural studies on cycle frames you'll find that it is best not to make the neck tube part of the structural spaceframe. I've talked about this before. It's best to terminate the downtube into the backbone and then just brace the neck tube back into the downtube. It also make the frame easier to build in the first place and modify if needed down the road to change the rake angle.

The neck, downtube, engine cradle, and backbone are using the stock 69 triumph frame.

This print was basically to show how to assemble the hardtail on a stock triumph frame.

We added all the motor and stock frame dimensions because they do not exist anywhere in print.

SELF INTRODUCTION: I was on the last board as bonustoolkit. I have changed that to my given name.
I started a project build there " File and Fit." I paln to continue that when I go back home in Dec. 2011. I first joined the board when Gary W had it in the year 2005. That was the time I really gained an interest in building chops. I have a long way to go, compared to some here.
