Cheers Steve

It's just clearance to allow for the shape of the casting. It widens towards the wheel centre so you can't just use a rectangle of metal. You'll see when you crack open the cush drives. It's very obvious.

Rear-wheel gum-mod

Hi guys

I'm still enjoying the direct drive with this mod:sbike: for several thousands of kilometers this year.

@Ranger6: The inner part of the sprocket is going "up" - you'll see it when you unmount it - you can see it on my images if you know where to look. It was necessary to get the sheet fully on the spocket. Doesn't cause any damages or missing anything - the rubber isn't coming out to the edges of his space. correct as mb4807 already wrote.

@tenyammann: Simple '2-component-in-minutes-dry-glue' - if it's not fix after some years - i'll glue it in again at the next tire- or rubberchange.

Happy und safe rides!

cheers, Andy

I've mounted yesterday the rubber-mod for the backwheel on my 660Z - does you already know that (then i didn't catch it...)?
Now the rubber should hold longer than 15-20'000 km and there's no space between the rubber and the chain support.

First i cleaned the inner part of the chain support:

Then i produced eight pieces with 0.8 and 0.5 mm thick sheet (2.2 x 4.2 cm) and spice it together:

then i mounted them on the cleaned spaces

Now inserted the brandnew rubbers and there won't be any space left for a much longer time than without this mod.

If Kev or one of you UK-guys did already described this mod - sorry - otherwise - i just can recommend it.

cheers, Andy

Hi...what type of adhesive did you use to fix the plates into position?.

Hi bow

As written in my last comment:
Simple '2-component-in-minutes-dry-glue' - if it's not fix after some years - i'll glue it in again at the next tire- or rubberchange.

It's anyway pressed in with the rubber - there can't be happen any damages - if you check it at the change of your rubbers.

cheers, Andy

Great mod Andy and well explained. :applause:

I've taken the liberty of amending the thread title (by adding "cush" and "drive") to make it a bit easier for folk to search/find it in future.

Thanks Pleiades - and also thanks for your pcv-map for the z - will load it up when the commander arrives. Have the same setting except double Akra's instead of yours.

Perfect thanks - would be a shame if someone isn't finding it.

cheers, Andy
