A few Bits and Pieces

Here's a few bits you might find useful..

Someone asked me some time ago for a pic of whats under the seat.
Being a Corbin seat you have more underseat storage.
Puck is usually in a sock, autocom gubbins, aux relay next to tilt sensor, 12v socket, tool roll, tyre weld, Jaws tourch, tyre pressure gauge,
first aid kit, fold up rucksack, EDZ wind blocker, Nurofen, Motrax oiler controller, Helmet/kit rope lock.

Storage for pin lock inserts, in the sock.. hold both mine and wife's pinlocks
(either tinted or clear depending on whats fitted to the helmets)
this prevents them from damage. Made from a 5ltr paint tub lid.

Dash extension, Aux on off switch, gear indicator, voltage monitor. Easily made from a section of black square rain pipe. I've had this fitted for 4 years of more with no problems. It clears the ignition switch. Held in place with 2 tiny self tappers.

Alloy bracket to mount preload adjuster, had to be made to clear Givi wingrack support bar.. Simple design that is slightly longer than the one supplied and allows a twist in it to give required clearance.

And for those that have not seen this before, headlight height adjuster. details here... http://www.bikersoracle.com/blackbird/forum/showthread.php?t=48059&highlight=headlight+adjuster

Do you ride your bike or just clean it, my undertray looks like the business end of a hoover bag with oily bits, just ignore my jealousy as it's the weekend and I have worked my sack off.I wish mine was that pretty but being the man I am it ain't ever gonna be like that.

Well the bikes now got 60k on it, mostly mine. The under seat kit gets a quick clean once every 12 months or so. But that photo is several years old, check post date. Theory is you fill any gaps and there's no room for shit.

Have to admit I get as much pleasure cleaning it as I do riding it. But prefer longer journeys rather than short ones.
