some more faffing!
We fitted the new,longer bobbins (now 110mm long) over the week-end and moved the clamp downward as far as it will go. We realised that the clamp could be put to good use, even if you do not use it to mount the bobbins. It could be used in conjunction with the rear engine mount to fit a neat set of crash bars. Unfortunately, these would have to be made DIY, if you have access to a pipe bender and good strong piping, it is possible. Will try out the bobbins as they are at the moment before embarking on the next project. Might be able to use the bars that came off the TIger after the crash, just a bit scratched, nothing major. More the fitting that bent. Strong stuff. Also faffed with the BarkBuster had guards a bit, these are also off the TIger, and fitt well. Also strong kit these. My hubby fitted a 2 finger clutch lever to help with my small hands! Came off a CBR 600, unfortunately, the front brake lever does not fit as a replacement, it still needs some work there.
Happy riding!
