Built a nav tower and fixed the wind screen on, fitted power sockets, added heat sheilds. Started to design my pannier holsters.
And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

Fitted my seat concepts seat :)
No more numb bum hopefully, also it raises the Seat slightly which I like. Also go my satnav fully mounted and powered and tinkered around with my USB port but ran out of connectors.

Fitted little black LED indicators all round and finished all the electrical work, also fitted tools and front panniers. Bike is starting to look pretty mean. Photos to follow.

However led indicators need a load of extra bits to make them work properly (something I didn't know until after fitting them). I got them working well enough for now but they may need some work before the MOT.

I left it with the nice chaps at Watsonian for them to bolt a sidecar to it.

I'm excited, roll on completion day!

Redesigned my luggage racks (with an angle grinder), modified some 20l molle backbacks to fit my bike as panniers. Hopefully made it impossible for my exhaust to burn anything. Painted and Laquered a rad guard ready to fit tonight. I enjoy workshop time very much (thumbs)

Put some angle on it so it can go exhaust side too without touching. Pelicase 1170 available plenty of places. Not cheap but quality isnt
