[Ruggybuggy]

Anyone read Japanese?

That's clever, especially as it won't open without the ignition on.

Looks like a lot of technical work though, beyond my skill/knowledge level!

Looks like I'll be sticking with the 'Frunk knob'.

Great idea.

Brilliant design!
Should be standard fitment by Honda

Along with a lockable handbrake to negate the use of a disc lock.

It might be a good design... I don't know...there is, as yet, no information on how that was accomplished.

When you push that button, what is pulling on the cable that releases the latch?
Where is it mounted?
How is it wired in to electrical?
Is it electrical?

The presentation is very clean. It looks great.
I wonder how it works.

Being as it only works when the ignition is in the "on" position, that would be my first tell-tale sign it's electronically aided.

It's been around for quite a while, there are several threads about it here on the forum. I'm surprised it's been forgotten about?

Here's one

Getting old and mindless...

Hahhaha I'm every bit as guilty there...

 

[2brnut2b]

I was just and only pointing me !
When I saw this thread this morning, I knew I saw something like this somewhere but didn't remember where !
Where else could I've seen it ?!

 

[Normsthename]

I've bit the bullet and ordered one.
Drives me nuts when I have to switch the ignition off, take key out etc etc
Just hope it fits my NC750X......

Getting it to the States makes this an expensive proposition. I may have a look at building one myself.

 

[Fuzzy]

Post the results with pictures and comments here please.

 

[ziggie]

Build it and they will read.
