Looking good! This is going to be awesome when you get it completed!

Moon Assad 04-19-2009 10:21 PM

Well, gona have to put this project on hold for a little while. Im making the move to MD and im not sure on how long its gona take me to set up shop. I hope it dosnt take long but this is a big move for me, gotta take it as it comes.

Rotr8 04-20-2009 07:02 PM

yup PROJECT STREET RAY coming to Baltimore,,,,:evil_laug:evil_laug:evil_laug

Moon Assad 04-21-2009 12:32 AM

Ow, forgot to mention the secound set of shocks arrived. Im iching to try them on my Raptor. There so easy to swap out and from the dyno charts (yes they come with dyno charts) it looks like there gona be easy on my back cause there progressive, not spring progressive but anything under 3 inches of the shock travle is like your floating on air hence (floats) then they progress on the hard hits (25ft drop offs). Its gona be so easy to pull the rear shock of the street ray and place it on my quad. Thats also gona be a benifit on the drivability of the streetray. when driving normaly its gona ride very soft and smooth but if you hit a pothole there gona soak it up withought rattling your teeth. Still thinking of and offroad version, If they get nearly 12 inches of travle on a quad expect the same in an offroad settup for the trike. Im talking rally car speed. Its a wounder why you still have leef springs, wernt they invented for horse pulled wagons? Man, and they have been used for this long with the tech available.

project looking awesome!

Moon Assad 04-21-2009 01:20 AM

Thanks.

So where you guys at with the chassis? Rolling?

Moon Assad 04-22-2009 12:48 PM

Well, its rolling and the steering rack is hooked up. I need to do the bearings in the rear hub but as it sits I can push it across the garage with little to no effort.

Moon Assad 04-22-2009 02:26 PM

Put it this way, this thing rolls so easy. Also, you can ask your buddy to hold up the car while to change the tire if it ever weres out or goes flat. Another fact of the matter im using full size car breaks (miata) so in that case your probly never going to need to change the pads out.

pdxhak 04-22-2009 03:28 PM

Nice!

Moon Assad 04-22-2009 07:37 PM

I just pulled the colum off of my parts miata. Its going to work just fine, Ive already got an idea on how to mount it so it slides to the center to get it out of your way to enter and exit easy.

Moon Assad 05-23-2009 10:05 PM

I found a place to put this project to bed. The plan is to start in the next few weeks. I cant wait!!!

pdxhak 07-15-2009 10:46 PM

bump!!

Moon Assad 07-16-2009 12:11 AM

Well, weeks turn into months. She's still in storage awaiting space with tools.

pdxhak 07-16-2009 12:17 AM

Sounds like my house projects :rolleyes:

Moon Assad 07-16-2009 12:30 AM

Yet, tell me about it. With this its like having a brand new 8 in the garage and its snowing outside times 10.

Moon Assad 09-29-2009 08:51 PM

back on it, awsome.
