All
I would love to take the credit for this work but anyone who knows me will see right through the story
I do however have a very good friend who is a little handy at these sorts of things. The best thing about this is that I live in York and the bloke who done this for me lives in St Helens so all of the work was done through measurements, packages in the post and long conversations
We started with a very basic design / template to ensure the shape works
And it did work
Following that we took a load of measurements and he used his 3D printer to create a template and check the fit etc
As you can see this fitted fine so away he went with his CNC machine and this was the result
You may remember me asking for the VStrom font in another post...well with a little help the bracket now had the logo on it
After a short while in his powder coating machine and a dash of silver paint, I'm sure you will agree the result was impressive
He then got a little excited and attached a 12v socket (which is now connected to the heated grip connector under the left side).
Now not only did he do all this work but he also drove across on Sunday morning to fit the 12v socket, a further 12v socket under the seat, a pair of relays in their own specially 3D printed housing and my mini PD Oiler.
Now for the bit that is missing from this thread.... My handy work
Whilst allowing the PD oiler to push oil through I left the ignition on and those that have fitted these will know how long it takes to get the oil through from bottle to chain. Well having left it long enough or too long, I went out to discover I had allowed the battery to run flat
so now it is now on charge
Anyway.. I have not yet taken any pictures of all this gear on the bike but promise I will get some uploaded at the weekend
What do you think so far?
