Custom Cycle Control Systems Inc. recently released their new improved cooling stabilizer/oil pan kit designed to improve your motorcycle performance by eliminating the swing arm movement by “triangulating motor and transmission” to the frame. It also eliminates wobble and rear wheel steering while decreasing oil temperature for better performance and longevity.

Constructed from lightweight 6061 billet aluminum for strength, this stabilizer/oil pan is CNC machined right here in the USA. The extra fins machined right into the oil pan design add approximately 1/2 quart more oil capacity, which reduces your oil temperature drastically over other stabilizing systems. The integrated stabilizer/oil pan kit will improve your motorcycle performance by eliminating the swing arm movement.

Another cleverly conceived Acme custom-fab component for the garage-based or pro-shop bike builder. The Acme battery tray employs two sections of CNC-machined aircraft-grade alloy to hold your bike’s electrical storage unit in a safe, upright position behind the transmission. A 12” long x 3” wide section of 3/8-inch thick cold-rolled steel is drilled and tapped to accept three 3/8” recessed Allen cap screws. These screws pass through the lower alloy battery plate and to hold the entire assembly securely on the bike. To install, simply trim the steel plate to fit between the rear stays of your motorcycle frame, check for clearance around the drivetrain, and weld in place.
