Secured/ Waterproof Number plate Storage box
Hi guys, just thought i'd run a product I had prototyped a few years ago past you guys and see if there is any interest in me producing a batch for sale (Which was my initial intention). I did a couple of euro tours and felt that I could add a bit of extra storage to my bike (1200GS) to the number plate area which would allow ease of access for small tools, documents and emergency items like first aid items...and so on. My step father owns a sheet metal fabrication business so the process was easily arranged and designed and with a few small tweaks I feel the the product is a fab option for all bikes not just for touring as even if you head off with out the panniers you can still carry the essentials, (Bulbs, oil, docs, etc.) in a secure and waterproof unit. The prototype has been fitted for nearly 3 years now and I've got to say that for me its been really handy and whenever I've spoken to fellow riders i've had nothing but positive comments. The units are made from a high grade aluminium, are precision machine bent and welded with a high grade "U" section for water sealing. The box is sized for standard regulation plates and is fitted using the existing holes. I've gone with the standard black Powder coating and once it is fitted it really blends in with the bike. I could look at silver if that has any interest. I'm eager to have some feed back on this idea and if there is an interest in it. What do you guys think...???
