Suspension travel on Ulster Rep

[merlinart]

Hi All,

I apologize in advance if this is a question with an obvious answer. I have an Ulster Rep and have some issues with the wing supports at the front fouling the the wheels when turned. As I am working on the front, I noticed that the rear wings are not centered on the tyres. The tyres are near the outer edge of the wing, which is a hooded one. While Chris Gould's book mentions that the tyre's should be centered(logically) I began to wonder if there is a reason to have them as they are. I have thought that possibly with suspension travel and body roll, the outside cornering tyre may need the extra clearance.

Hi Erich

It looks a very nice recreation indeed. I like the steering wheel and its colour. Out of interest, whose mudguards have you used, and whose steering wheel too? Have you more photos including side views. The exhaust looks stainless steel...is it, I intend using stainless on mine.

regards

Arthur
