64valiant Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Rack attached. Good old riv nuts are a life saver. Two in the bottom and welded the top nut in. Lock washer arrives tomorrow so no need for any lock tight. Lucky I'm actually riding my bike and finding these issues now. And out to do more testing this weekend. Might make my sack to carry luggage in the front this weekend. See how i get on. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mop Head Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 A dude on my Facebook group found a bunch of old stock windscreens for Honda c90’s. FOAMERS picked up 5. Because where else can you get Japanese made small bike windscreens for next to nothing $$$-wise. Keen as to rock one for Eastcape! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keltik Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Given the number of people attending and the fact I don't really want to do it again on the same boring bike, I would like to volunteer myself in a second support vehicle. I will have space and am willing to carry spares or any luggage/fuel that might not be practical to wedge onto your scooters. If there's already enough support people, i don't mind staying home. Who was the other person keen on driving? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
