Posted February 7, 20214 yr For Technic challenge TC19, I’ve built a scale model of the Rieju MRT PRO (2020 model). This supermotard is a 50cc bike (moped). Rieju is a well known Spanish brand, which makes mopeds and motorbikes for a very long time, and still does. I’ve added it’s special features, which makes it the PRO version instead of the “normal” MRT. Upside down fork with protectors ProLink system Handguards Other functions: Rear spring Steering And I’ve built the 50CC AM6 engine, which are used in Rieju bikes. I started to make a simple sketch of the dimensions of the bike. Length, width, heigth and the distance between the wheels I don’t have a picture of this sketch, because it’s just a few lines with some dimensions. And it’s not very clear to show on a computer screen. At first, I stated to buid the swingarm. It was not very complicated. The only thing was to add the rear spring at the correct position and make a connection for the ProLink system. The ProLink system is visible at one of the overview pictures below. Second, I’ve built the frame of the bike. It was complicated, because it needs the correct angle to connect the fork correctly. You can see it on the pictures below. 11_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 12_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Thirth, I’ve built the 50cc AM6 engine and exhaust. 10_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr fourth, I’ve built the fork and added the wheels. At last, I’ve build the plates to add on the frame. 14_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 13_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Final result: 01_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 02_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 06_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 03_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 05_Rieju_MRT_Pro_2020 by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr More pictures at Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mathijslegofan/albums/72157718203869308
February 8, 20214 yr Hello ! Modeling an existing bike is quite a challenge, kudos for trying on that. A few remarks, thought.. Are you sure about that caster angle ? Also, the final model seems a bit heavy on system bricks, are your sure you still qualify ? Finally, have you noticed there's no picture of the front side ? Good luck with votings !
