ZX6 Rearsets 3D Modelling

[Mazabuzz]

(Also up on RATS)

Some of you may know that I've been doing 3D modelling for around 10 years, so I have decided to put my love of motorcycles/racing (when I can stay on) and my love of fabrication together.

Since my bike is of the track for some time I have decided to make some spare rearsets for my ZX6 which are based on my current Vortex Rearsets.
So I headed into work with a tape measure, steel rule and a set or venires and went to work modelling the parts that I could.

Here is what I was working with. Was pretty hard coming up with all the angles but I think it came out pretty good.



So after a couple of hours this is what I've come up with








There was fillets all over the thing but to bring the fabrication time down I kept many of the edges 90 deg.
Next step will be to make a copy of the 3 parts on the 3D printer and see if they fit on the bike and all moving parts behave as they should

I'll update this thread with my progress

Nice one! I take it you work with CAD or something?
I'm a 3d artist but movie and advertising work. Don't know if I'd trust me skills to create some thing technically accurate to work in the real world like this.

No. I'm using Inventor 2013
