Hey all, Madelynn here, community director at Fictiv and one of the folks on the Open-Source Motorcycle project.
Thanks for sharing this project and giving feedback, looks like the signup flow is causing some confusion, so we're in process of removing the need to enter your email to get access to the files.
I'm passionate about open source, as is our team, so we intended this project to be entirely open source and available to anyone to download, modify, and build upon the project. Documentation is still in the works, and I'm always looking for more folks to help out.
To remove vaporware concerns, you can download the files straight from here: http://bit.ly/2mU6l2y http://bit.ly/2mU6l2y, and email me if you have any questions directly to me at madelynn@fictiv.com
If you want to talk motorcycles in general, I'm all ears there too. :)
- justinclift 10y agoCool, I take my comment about "vapourware" then. :) With the STEP files for download, their metadata indicates they were created using Solidworks 2014. Would it be feasible to include the Solidworks files for people to download too? Although not everyone has Solidworks (obviously), its native file format would be useful for those who do. :)

- fictivmade 10y agoThanks, justinclift, appreciate it. :) Hm, I don't see any issues with that, let me see what I can do. Feel free to email me if you have any other suggestions, on the files or documentation (which is being built out now), always could use another POV.
- lj3 10y agoAny plans to extend the open source work to electric motorcycles? There's a lot of motorcycle building talent over at https://endless-sphere.com/forums/ https://endless-sphere.com/forums/, but I don't think anyone there is working on anything that's explicitly open source.
