I think you might have not fixed the wheel to the adapter using the bolts at all. The bolts are 20mm long. If they were coming out one by one you wouldnāt have the mounting holes anymore. In this case you have perfect holes and smooth finish. I got to give it to you, itās a first I see somebody who managed this.

Sweet build! But I gotta ask: donāt you think the Sportster deck is thin enough to mount the direct drives in drop-through? Itās gotta be close, right?

iāve seen people with drop through setup but they all had to route the deck a few mm to clear the cans.
I think if i keep the rear stiff enough iād be fine.

So dudes.
Are you able to switch between thumb wheel and trigger without killing yourself?

Only after 20minutes of stress
No problem at all, more so if on thumb rolling forward is accelerate and rolling back is brake, while on trigger pulling back is accelerate and pushing forward is brake (so essentially the pot is rotating the same direction for the same result).

If you switch from thumb to trigger (or trigger to thumb) control, and you get used to it over the course of a few minutes and are riding along and BAM
a car pulls out in front of you, donāt you accidentally hit the wrong control by instinct occasionally?
I know I do.
Itās why I stopped switching controls very much. When youāre using your brain, everything is fine, but when you have a sudden instantaneous instinctual response often itās reversed, which exacerbates the problems happening at that moment. You see the car and brace for slow down right as you smash the brakes ā¦ but then the skate starts accelerating hard ā¦ and all in a fraction of a second.

You could technically invert the pot?

Nope, maybe because on both thumb and trigger remotes I instinctively put force through both throttle fingers in said directions.
