I have always wondered about the sprocket/disc brake thingy. How do you keep the chain oiled.....but not the brake disc? The chain even goes right through the brake caliper!

Posts: 451 Plano, TX	Re: crazy custom savage Reply #6 - 09/29/14 at 04:21:30 Serow must've had some influence on this build... Between the plate over the carb, driving through that harley 6 speed, and only having the aforementioned sprocket/rotor brake... I'd imagine riding that thing is interesting... NOt to mention that seat.

No way it's a foot peg about 9 inches under your butt noo, maybe the brake goes just under the pedal - looks like the pedal can't move??? I'm gonna find the website and look for more pics

Well I studied it a little bit.....and found this...which is hard to decipher:
http://www.1000ps.at/modellnews-2358121-suzuki-ls-650-savage

However the blower is not a blower....it is a Geitrebe 4 gang....which is a 4 speed transmission. This fellow is bypassing the stock transmission and using a Harley Belt Drive and clutch, and has a non-unit transmission sitting on top of the engine. The gear shift lever goes to the transmission, and it has a bicycle hand lever to operate the clutch. The only brake is the rear one, and somehow the master cylinder is hooked up to a foot pedal...your guess is as good as mine at this point....those spools on the rear axle are either to be sliders.....or for his rear axle bike lift. The front and rear have very limited suspension travel - and most likely no damping.

I can't blow up this picture well enough to see what is happening - but the master cylinder is doing something around the rear pedal.
