Does any one have any information on the development of some of the chassis components on the RSA? The swing arm and linkage? The carbon fibre seat? The fuel tank? How could I get these parts?
The fuel tank does not need to be in perfect condition. It can have 'some' crash damage....

Are there any replicas of these parts?

I apologise this is in English (Australian) :)

Mike

Carbon fiber seat?

But we have to open a new subject, hoping that some specialized guys who are here can provide us good information.

I also know a french pilote specialized in RSA parts....

lol!

haha, LOL! :) hope 2011 brings him a better year.

from this side (Holland) I am wishing everybody a great Christmas and a marvellous 2011!

No worries Skippy ...ehh...Mike. You just beg, steal or borrow a LOT of money and you contact

Or you hope that somebody here comes up with affordable replica material.
Best season's wishes, mate.

Hi Mike !

I hope you will find your chassis components. There are many good links in PIT - LANE (and jokers too !).

Good luck, mate.

A vot' bon coeur les amis de Pit-Lane. Merci d'aider Mike dans sa quête.

Je me charge d'une présentation rapide du personnage :
Mike est pilote et mécanicien de haut niveau.
Il a terminé 2ème du British Supermono mais il a aussi été champion du New South Wales (l'état de Sydney) en 125.
Il a construit son mono avec un moteur Honda 450. Il a fait le choix de la légèreté (face aux 650 et plus) et de la grosse attaque !
Il vit et travaille en angleterre (actuellement dans une entreprise de boites de vitesses).
Il sera aussi un très bon interlocuteur pour tous les amateurs de construction et de course moto. In english, off course !

hahahaha Skippy :) ok I will go to the bank Wink

Thanks Frits Season's Greetings to you too!

I add here what Frits has writen in another topic:

The Aprilia RSA with the curved forward-facing exhaust and the older RSW with the straight rearward-facing exhaust use the same pipe dimensions - in theory at least, because you simply cannot keep everything identical, like external surface area, for example. A straight pipe should be better, but the difference was hardly noticable.
There was a much bigger difference elsewhere: in handling. Because of the forward-facing exhaust the RSA's engine had to be mounted further away from the front wheel.
That changed the weight distribution (Eric Offenstadt might correct me and call it mass distribution 8) ). Many former RSW-riders could not get used to this and complained about front fork problems and lack of feedback. The problem still exists...

Pour un peu connaître "monomotomicky", le voici le rapide australien Michael PAYNE en prégrille à Cadwell Park en août 2009 avec son mono 450 HONDA 4T.
On comprend pourquoi il recherche des pièces de 125 Aprilia, et puis il a une vilaine maladie il s'intéresse aux JBB...

Maybe combine the Jiangmen prototype and my bike? This is for another topic....

Yes I am looking for more Aprilia parts.... Wink

That makes two of us, Mike. I only learned of JBB's existence when I stumbled onto this forum, but I really like what I've seen - both engine and frame-wise.

That gearbox company wouldn't by any chance be Zeroshift, would it?
By the way Mike, sorry about the Skippy-joke. It wasn't that good...

Thanks for that Marc. Noted.... Please stop teasing me with pictures of lightly damaged RSA parts! :)

I like the look of it too but now I want to understand it more, feel the front end underneath me :)

No not Zeroshift, Nova. Haha I was just surprised you knew about Skippy :) It is an old tv show!

"I was just surprised you knew about Skippy :) It is an old tv show!"

And there are so many "old guys" in PIT-LANE... lol!

Hi monomotomicky

Speed Fiber manufactures carbon seat and the other fairings of RSA.
Maybe even the tank but I'm not sure. Sorry for my bad English. Good luck with your research.
