Fazers in CAD
#21
I get the impression most on the site love their fazer for what it is as it is, save handlebars and down pipes Christo.
Although interesting and highly skilled,  What u propose doing on cad and to your fazer, is imo, like scrambling an omelette because you love omelettes Smile
Women have chocolate men have bikes.....

Totally agree.  A Fazer is a Fazer and we all love them for precisely that.  A pimped up Fazer is no longer a Fazer, it's just something that somebody has built to detract from the original.  I've seen the project bike and if it were me doing it I would simply rebuild everything exactly as it was the day it came out of the factory.  I'd clean, repaint or polish everything so it is spotless and then put it all back together so you end up with a new, old Fazer.  OK, I'd add a hugger for practicality, a belly pan because I think they look right and a different can so it has a bit of crackle to it.  Other than that, I'd keep it standard.

If you've never found it, have a look at the crap on www.barryboys.co.uk.  The person that has done unspeakable things to an innocent car thinks it's great, the rest of the world thinks it's a joke.  We don't really want a Fazer to be the first bike to appear there......

When I started in engineering, home projects and many quick work jobs were all planned out on a cigarette packet. In my own shed at that time as a non smoker it was not easy to get cigarette packets. But now I have City & Guides in auto cad and am sat at a computer that could be big enough to hold a drawing of the whole Fazer and its production line.


That said I still use sheets of paper for most jobs or if it a bit tricky graph paper is very good.

That is a useful starting point!

Got it in another format?

That would be a impressive enough achievement and one which screams to the biking nation how proud we are to be the Foccers of Britain Wink

I am a CAD designer and you are kind of using a hammer to crack an egg. As others have said it will take hundreds if not thousands of man hours to model it, depending on the level of detail, and for what? Only useful if you are machining major parts. If you want to visualise it the 2-D Photoshop route is the way to go.
