Mercenary Superscura - Air Shifter

So the Mercenary Superscura foot controls have been fabricated and installed and appear to be working. The rear brake operates in a fairly conventional manner. The gear shifter can be used conventionally too, but for racing can be upshifted by a button on the left handlebar.

Pressing the shift button activates the air-cylinder (piston) which enthusiastically slams up a gear, hopefully faster than the pilot could do it manually. Early testing suggests that this appears to be working.

So what's left to do? Well, we have yet to fabricate the exhaust system, while the ECU and associated wiring are currently just a fantasy.

So tune in next week when we will almost certainly be even further behind schedule...
