Does anyone have any tips for 'essential G450 mods' I ride a combination of road and trail and seem to be falling off quite a lot right now so I guess I need to protect a few bits. (Giving up is not an option)
Now in my day (Many many years ago) essential modifications were things like a tether on the foot brake lever and I was thinking of applying such ideas to the 450. Ideas include:
The foot brake tether of course.
Aluminium plate to protect the side case if the foot brake lever gouges it.
Some general lock wiring
Some form of hard part to protect the radiator
Something over the exhaust header as a heat guard as I am for ever burning my waterproofs.
Some additional fuel capacity (I was thinking of a couple MSR cans on the back)
I have already fitted a couple of lift straps to the front and rear.
No doubt Touratech or Speedbrain do most of these parts but I always used to do it myself in the old days and I want to carry on this way.
So anything else that is de rigueur for the G450X?
