Hi. every one. glad to inform you that I made some motor mounts for Racestar motors (with 38mm screws). now only have caliber , TB218, haxagon adapters for it, will have Paris adapter soon!
any my old 50/63 motor mounts with adapter for TB218 trucks now.
also, I am planning to make motor guard or bash guard for the motors. as below idea. glad to receive comments here.
oh! ok, does that mean that the Racestar’s bolt pattern isn’t the standard 50xx pattern?
That’d explain why I was scratching my head trying to get a racestar 5065 onto those 63xx/50xx mounts. Which seems to be only doable if using 2 of the 4 bolts, which is probably a bit risky.
@dickyho try incorporating the bashguard hole pattern into the mount itself.
Eliminating the “interface plate”, you’ll end up with fewer bolts and sturdier construction
@dickyho
Outstanding! The Racerstar is one of my favorites! I’ll probably have to throw a couple in on my next order with you! By the way, my friend is very happy with the AT kit I recently got from you, thank you and keep up the good work!
Tell me.more about a MBS mount! I need a set… But long enough center to center distance to clear 8" tires… I prefer not.to have my motor pulleys behind the tire… And idlers preferred
very difficult to make the motor pulley behind the wheel, unless the mount very long. on the top one of below picture, the centre to centre is 120mm, that can bearly make the motor pulley outside the wheel.
@dickyho I’m glad you’re working on a bash guard design, but it doesn’t need to be so complicated. I think that modifying the design of the 3d printed pulley cover so that it extends down to cover the bottom of the mount is a more elegant design. I think these designs make the motor mounts look too big, and the top of the mount doesn’t need to be covered. I understand that 3d printed plastics aren’t as durable, but maybe it could be a separate part that’s printed in shock absorbing TPU or maybe CNCd out of aluminum if it’s not too expensive.
