Project is near completion. Just got stub shaft finished to go on flywheel for mounting CVT. Here is LONGGGGGGG build thread due to some hangups in life thread. Economic crunch took it's toll... Diesel bike is about all I didn't loose. Just kept plugging at it when I could and slowly it is getting done. Project started in 2009.

Now that lifes rolling differently and opend up the ability to dream and take actions toward an about Expo rig (my LMTV) and matching diesel bike am looking to also purchase a second diesel bike based on a KLR. The Tribota is a 3cyl. and will be good for Bike Touring. The KLR is a single cylinder and better for back of LMTV Expo rig.
