well it takes me time to sit design, have a couple of beers. program cnc have a couple more beers, pass out. wake up set up cnc mill, drink a couple while parts run. If part looks good and works well, then ill celebrate to that. It usually takes about a week from design to finished product. where as if harley has it in stock it will only take 1 day to pick them up. But for 700 i rather enjoy my journey in making them myself

Yep I agree, nice to make stuff, but it does get time consuming. If you get everything right the first time, then it is great. Nice job, those are beautiful.

Nice...is aluminum going to be tough enough for rockers long term?

Was wondering that too. Couldn't you machine them out of steel?

WELL I HAVE TO SAY ARE YOU NOT GLAD THAT THEY THREW THAT ROCK IN YOUR PATH $700.00 SO THAT YOU COULD JUMP OVER THAT HURDLE AND BUILD A MASTERPIECE. DAMN NICE!!! Knuck From Indiana

top notch work.

I dont see any prob using the alum., the rockers are fairly short and stout and the holes will be supported by the bushings also

 

[charmer21o]

Yes they should hold for a very long time. I designed them with strength in mind of course. Yes I could use steel but everyone else does and it rusts right away. Thats y I chose 7075 Its very strong yet Flexible can withstand High loads and is not brittle.
Aside from that I am making my own springer front end in which I will be using these rockers as well. And it will also have alot of crazy curves and angles like these rockers. Believe me I know all those fancy curves arent necessary. But hey I like my women with lots of curves and no stop signs. I wont just settle for any chick because she can get the job done. They have to be able to stop traffic and get the job done at the same time. Thats what i look for. And yes I will make about ten sets of these because i plan to make 9 special springer front ends to use some of the rockers. That way I can afford to buy everyone here a couple rounds of beer.

 

[nmaineron]

You beat me to it, but my question to you was why don't you just make your own springer! Nice stuff!

 

[skajaquada]

if hes got the talent and machinery to make these im sure spinning up some bushings would be something he could do in his sleep

And from the sounds of the beer consumption during fabrication, he just might!

 

[Throwback]

Your talented CNCinst for sure but rockers dont cost $700 and Aluminum is not strong enough. They also wont look rite on any harley springer Ive ever seen. Make them from stainless and buff all those machine lines out and dont put a name on it and your on to something.

Did a neuton force test and it will definately withstand carrying 4 big 600 lbs ladies. And i can also make u some stainless ones if u like but will be alot more $$$. But thanks for the info. Remember I will be riding the bike so if u dont hear back from me u were definatelt right.

[charmer21o]

installing them on front end. looking preety good to me

 

[charmer21o]

another shot

 

[Dan Boy]

They are so nice. I wish I had 1) the skills 2) the knowledge and 3) the equipment to do something like that.

It makes me feel so shit at what I am capable of!

I bet you could sell many of those if you wanted.

Cheers Dan.

They do look great.

 

[that_stupid_kydd]

wow those look pretty damn good

 

[bobscogin]

Those look great, but man, I gotta say I still got some concerns over strength around the axle hole. I'd certainly be watching for stretch.
