CAD Design of Paralever Suspension for BMW Bikes

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the difficulty of obtaining CAD designs for the Paralever suspension used in BMW bikes, as these files are likely proprietary. Participants suggest creating custom designs based on measurements or reaching out to BMW engineering for data, although official CAD files are unlikely to be available. One user shares a line art reference to assist with the project. The conversation highlights the challenges of accessing specific technical designs in the automotive industry. Overall, obtaining detailed CAD files for BMW's Paralever suspension remains a complex task.

I'm looking for some cad design of Paralever Suspension of BMW bikes.

Some could help me?

TKS :confused:

My guess would be the actual CAD files are proprietary information.

What do you need them for? Could you get by making them up yourself based on measurements?
 
I want do a simulation of the U joint with this configuration.
 
Found a line art for ya.

Your not going to find a BMW sanctioned CAD file. You May be able to call BMW engineering and get the info. I got some good information for a research project from Ford about the Cobra IRS rear suspension a while back. They didn't give me drawings but they sent me a lot of data and the like.

Good Luck.

Thread 'I need a concave mirror with a focal length length of 150 feet'

I need a mirror with a focal length of 150 ft. 12" diameter to 36" diameter will work good but I can't think of any easy way to build it. Nothing like this for sale on Ebay. I have a 30" Fresnel lens that I use to burn stumps it works great. Tree service wants $2000.

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
