[Moto3] Carbon fiber prototype

I just introduce myself, and I want to show one of our works, a prototype moto3 competition in carbon fiber, made for university valence Florida (Spain) to participate in an international competition for engineering students.

I hope you like it, this year is our intention to make a version of 80cc 2 stroke

Welcome on board!

Nice job!



Is it to participate to this?

And, of course, what is the weight of this frame?

Hi, thanks for your hospitality! the bike complete his weight was 72kg, the frame is 4kg and swingarm 2.5kg, but by regulation had to burden the bike over 20kg to participate in the MotoStudent, the result was a disaster, students took this project as a class examination. They left everything at the last minute! the bike was built from 0 to 2 months, so I get to Aragon without even starting the engine, and could not participate because of engine problems. Now it is my desire to develop this chassis in the category of 80cc which already participate.

Ok, thanks for the answers.
I see that students are the same in France and Spain...

Oh la!! Après la chanson de Goldman, c'est une déclaration de guerre

Ben oui, Marc +1... (Réflexion de vieux c... que je suis surement).

C'est une base de YZF R 125.
Jantes, fourche, forme du bras et du cadre.

C'est sûrement léger pour s'aligner dans quelque catégorie Moto3 que ce soit, mais le travail est intéressant en effet.
Rien que les poids annoncés; en comparaison aux éléments Yamaha...

Il reste encore un peu pas mal de boulot en effet mais pourquoi pas, avec envie cela peut être interessant à suivre.
Courage!

Hello, actually it is Sherco engine and components others of yamaha yzf-r 125, but this is so by regulations of the competition, it was the same for all participants.

Moto3 in name only, of course you can only participate in a real competition of moto3 if you want to make the ridiculous, the engine is very bad, more than 10 bikes broke into competition !! suspensions but may not be, and the wheels weigh almost as a whole bike.

The frame has many design flaws, is the first prototype and besides I would not meddle in the work of students and over was manufactured in just two months, has any idea what it means to make a bike in two months and carbon fiber ?? I now take over, and my next evolution be much better

Nice work! I don't know how you guys did to justify the price of your carbon frame with the 4750€ maximum price for 600 produced bikes. But just having a 72kg bikes it's a great accomplishment. I'm really sorry for the engine problems, and I really would have liked to see the performance of your exciting bike on the track.

We got almost the same problems with the brazilian bike. Everything was manufactured at the last minute, plus we received every component 2 months late (customs problems) and since the bike had to fly to spain, our planning was very short. Many last minute design changes were done. At the end we were able to solve our engines problems the night before the race.

By the way, 10 bikes broke at the competition, but 3 others engines broke at some testings before the event...

Hey see you on 2016!

Franchement, je pense que ça vaut le coup de jeter un coup d’œil à ce qui se fait en Moto Student. Pour des budgets assez limités (Prix estimé de notre moto 8000€), il y a des solutions assez intéressantes à voir. Puis c'est qu une fois tout les 2 ans.

Hi, thanks for your compliments, certainly not any drawback make a carbon fiber bike at those prices, this prototype was done with just 5000e + kit MotoStudent. There is a great lack of actual costs and many myths about composites, today it is possible to perform a series bike so be aware that there are carbon bicycles that come from asia for just 500e, a motorcycle would suppose not many more costs, but it would be a great investment to amortize the cost of production in series, this is a very risky.

I'm just contributor sponsor in the MotoStudent team, not if they had my support for the next edition, I hope so be it, for me it was a nice experience.
