That hoist is awesome! I need one!
A good length for optimum performance from what the gurus say is 39", what made you decide on this length if I may?
Well racing season is in full swing and the race bikes need work so things have really slowed down on the Champion project.
I did have some time to work on the engine hoist tho. Things are coming along nicely (with a few mistakes here and there). Should have the jack fully mounted by the end of today. I really want to test this thing out so I'm goin gangbusters on it right now.
More pics to follow...
Not sure what you mean Slide. Do you mean lined up relative to the rear axle or crank center line? Do you mean parallel? You can draw a straight line through the primary shaft (output shaft) and the swingarm shaft no matter where they fall. I will be checking alignment of the primary and secondary sprockets if that's what you mean.
Sorry for my ignorance
